n-3 essential fatty acids in Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus: Bioconverting LNA to DHA is relatively efficient and the LC-PUFA biosynthetic pathway is substrate limited in juvenile fish
Abstract
This study aimed to gain a better understanding of the long-chain (≥C20) polyunsaturated fatty acid (LC-PUFA) biosynthetic metabolism, with a specific focus on the metabolic fate of linolenic acid (18:3n-3, LNA) and linoleic acid (18:2n-6, LA) and the relationship between these two substrates in the process of LC-PUFA biosynthesis in juvenile Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus. Fish were fed four isoproteic (37.5%) and isolipidic (6.2%) diets...
