Testis essential fatty acids

Diets deprived of essential fatty acids (EFA) enhance the A6 desaturation activity of rat liver or testis microsomes. Changes of fatty acid composition with decrease of linoleic and arachidonic acids and increase of oleic and 20 3 (o)9) acids are shown as early as 3 days after EFA deprivation (Table 1). The changes evoke a decrease of the double bond index saturated acid ratio from 2.2 to... [Pg.90]

Burr Burr (1929, 1930) originally observed that essential fatty acids are necessary for the maintenance of normal testicular function in rats. Since then the lipid composition of testes and the metabolism of testicular lipids have been studied by many investigators in an attempt to relate these to the development and function of the testis. [Pg.575]
