Researchers have identified ARMC5 as a key regulator of fatty acid balance in adipose tissue. ARMC5 degrades non-SCAP-bound SREBP1, activating it to regulate stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD), an enzyme ...
Trans-fatty acids (TFA) are a major cause of cardiovascular diseases. These harmful fats can accumulate along artery walls, restricting blood flow and increasing the risk of heart attacks. According ...
Bats are the only mammals that can actively fly, enabling many species to perform seasonal migrations. In migratory birds, remaining airborne for many hours is supported by burning fatty acids, ...
A noticeable deficit of highly unsaturated lipids — including omega-3 fatty acids — found in women with Alzheimer's disease (AD) but not in cognitively healthy women is linked to worse cognition and ...

Women with Alzheimer's had lower levels of unsaturated lipids, including omega fatty acids, compared with cognitively healthy women. This difference was seen in women but not men, suggesting ...

Fatty acids are necessary for the normal functioning of all systems in the body. People can only get essential fatty acids from food sources, while it can create nonessential fatty acids. There are ...
