Bioactive fatty acids from non‐conventional lipid sources and their potential application in functional food development

Abstract: There is growing evidence that bioactive fatty acids (BFAs), including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5–3), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6–3), and conjugated fatty acids offer multiple biological benefits and constitute ingredients in functional food development. Despite their potential, novel and alternative/nonconventional sources with unique bioactive properties to meet growing demand remain largely unexplored, poorly characterized, and their effects are not well understood. We systematically reviewed the … Show more

“…Nowadays, the role of n-3 PUFAs has advanced significantly with the growing understanding of the unique specialized proresolving lipid mediators [14]. However, the extraction method also plays a role, as the quality of unconventional lipids largely depends on these extraction techniques [15].…”

“…However, the activity of the eicosanoids depends on the kind of PUFA that it is derived from [14]. Those eicosanoids that come from n-3 PUFA are described to have an antiinflammatory effect, which is why in recent years there has been a growing interest in possible therapeutic use for several diseases [15]. On the other hand, eicosanoids that come from n-6 PUFAs have a pro-inflammatory effect, which has been described as a predisposing factor for cancer and other diseases [16].…”

“…However, over time high-fat foods have been strongly demonized because great attention was paid to fat quantity rather than quality [2,3]. In particular, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), particularly those of the n-3 series, have positive health effects for reducing the risk of several diseases, such as coronary heart disease and strokes, chronic inflammation, and several cancers, and are important for the development and functionality of the brain and retina, along with reproductive functions [4,5].…”
