The ω-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Oxidative Stress in Long-Term Parenteral Nutrition Dependent Adult Patients: Functional Lipidomics Approach

Nutrients

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3PUFAs) are introduced into parenteral nutrition (PN) as hepatoprotective but may be susceptible to the lipid peroxidation while olive oil (OO) is declared more peroxidation resistant. We aimed to estimate how the lipid composition of PN mixture affects plasma and erythrocyte lipidome and the propensity of oxidative stress. A cross-sectional comparative study was performed in a cohort of adult patients who were long-term parenterally administered ω-3 PUFAs without (FO/–, n = 9) or with (FO/OO, n = 13) olive oil and healthy age- and sex-matched controls, (n = 30). Lipoperoxidation assessed as plasma and erythrocyte malondialdehyde content was increased in both FO/– and FO/OO groups but protein oxidative stress (protein carbonyls in plasma) and low redox status (GSH/GSSG in erythrocytes) was detected only in the FO/– subcohort. The lipidome of all subjects receiving ω-3 PUFAs was enriched with lipid species containing ω-3 PUFAs (FO/–˃FO/OO). Comm...

Adipose-tissue fatty acid composition in recipients of long-term total parenteral nutrition (TPN)

The American journal of clinical nutrition, 1991

Adipose-tissue fatty acid composition was studied in nine patients requiring long-term total parenteral nutrition (TPN). The patients received 17 +/- 8% of total energy as soybean-oil emulsion (Intralipid) and 66 +/- 8% as glucose. Despite low intake of 9c-16:1, 11c-18:1, and 13c-18:1, adipose-tissue concentrations of these monounsaturated fatty acids were higher in the TPN patients than in free-living control subjects (P less than 0.05) and inversely correlated with the percent energy from fat (r = -0.56, P = 0.11; r = -0.64, P = 0.06; r = -0.81, P = 0.008, respectively). This suggests that these fatty acids accumulated from endogenous synthesis from carbohydrate and thus may be markers of the percent fat in the diet. The essential fatty acids, 18:2 and 18:3n-3, positively correlated with the percent energy from fat (r = 0.79, P = 0.01; r = 0.80, P = 0.01, respectively). Linear-regression analysis suggests that normal adipose-tissue stores of 18:2 and 18:3n-3 are maintained when in...
