“ConclusionThese results suggest that α-linolenic acid prevents ER stress-mediated apoptosis of stearic acid lipotoxicity on primary rat hepatocytes might become a target to develop new antiapoptotic compounds in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).”
“ α-Linolenic acid distinctly reduced cell death and levels of all three indicators of ER stress brought about by stearic acid.”
“Of the lipid components present, four have been found to affect the accumulation of pancreatic xanthine dehydrogenase: linolenic , linoleic, and oleic acids suppress and stearic acid enhances.”
“Intraruminal infusions of linolenic’ acid increased the concentration of linolenic acid in the plasma cholesteryl esters and phospholipids and increased the concentration of stearic acid in the plasma triglycerides.”
