Long-chain SFA at thesn-1, 3 positions of TAG reduce body fat deposition in C57BL/6 mice

The present study aimed to determine the effect of positional distribution of long-chain SFA in TAG, especially at the sn -1, 3 positions, on fat deposition using the C57BL/6 mouse model. Throughout the 15 weeks of the study, mice were fed with diets fortified with palm olein (POo), chemically interesterified POo (IPOo) and soyabean oil (SOY). Mice receiving the SOY-enriched diet gained significantly higher amounts of subcutaneous fat ( P =...
