Study of the effects of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids:Molecular mechanisms involved in intestinal inflammation

摘要

The use of"omics"techniques in combination with model systems and molecular tools allows to understand how foods and food components act on metabolic pathways to regulate transcriptional processes.Polyunsaturated fatty acids have distinctive nutritional and metabolic effects because they give rise to lipid mediated products and affect the expression of various genes involved in intestinal inflammation.The present review focuses on the molecular effects of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids on intestinal inflammation.
