Fatty acid composition of developing sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) berry and the transcriptome of the mature seed
Download2012
Snyder, Crystal L., Schroeder, William R., Wishart, David, Cram, Dustin, Fatima, Tahira, Datla, Raju, Weselake, Randall J., Krisha, Priti
Background Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) is a hardy, fruit-producing plant known historically for its medicinal and nutraceutical properties. The most recognized product of sea buckthorn is its fruit oil, composed of seed oil that is rich in essential fatty acids, linoleic (18∶2ω-6) and...

Feasibility study of asset mapping with children: Identifying how the community environment shapes activity and food choices in Alexander First Nation
Download2013
Fehderau, David D., Willows, Noreen D., Ball, Geoff D., Holt, Nicholas L.
Introduction: It is estimated that First Nations children living on reserves are 4.5 times more likely to be obese than Canadian children in general. Many First Nations children living on reserves have limited healthy food and physical activity options. Understanding how community factors...

Fecal and urinary lignans, intrafollicular estradiol, and endometrial receptors in lactating dairy cows fed diets supplemented with hydrogenated animal fat, flax or sunflower seed
Download2008
Colazo, M. G., Okine, E. K. , Ambrose, D. J., Dyck, M. K., Oba, M., Thangavelu, G.
We hypothesized that the inclusion of flaxseed in the diets of lactating dairy cows will increase urinary and fecal concentrations of the lignans, secoisolariciresinol diglycoside (SDG), enterolactone and enterodiol, reduce intrafollicular concentrations of IGF-I and estradiol, and subsequently...

Feeding a Bioactive Oil Enriched in Stearidonic Acid during Early Life Influences Immune System Maturation in Neonatal Sprague-Dawley Rats
Download2020-03-01
Patel, Dhruvesh, Goruk, Susan, Newell, Marnie, Chen, Guanqun, Richard, Caroline, Field, Catherine J.
Long-chain n-3 PUFAs (LCPUFAs) improve immune development and reduce atopic disease risk in infants. Stearidonic acid (SDA) can be a substrate for biosynthesis of n-3 LCPUFAs.<bold>Objective: </bold>We aimed to determine the effect of feeding an SDA-enriched diet during suckling and weaning on...

Feeding a diet enriched in docosahexaenoic acid to lactating dams improves the tolerance response to egg protein in suckled pups
Download2016
Field, Catherine J., Lewis, Erin D., Richard, Caroline, Goruk, Susan
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of feeding a maternal diet supplemented with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) during the suckling period on the development of the immune system and oral tolerance (OT) in offspring. Dams were randomized to consume one of two nutritionally...

Feeding long chain (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids to obese leptin receptor deficient JCR:LA-cp rats modifies immune function and lipid raft fatty acid composition
Download2009
Ruth, Megan R., Field, Catherine J., Proctor, Spencer D.
Dietary EPA and DHA modulate immunity and thereby may improve the aberrant immune function in obese states. To determine the effects of feeding fish oil (FO) containing EPA and DHA on splenocyte phospholipid (PL) and lipid-raft fatty acid composition, phenotypes and cytokine production,...

Steele, Michael A., Fisher, Rebecca E., Karrow, Niel A.
Adverse uterine environments experienced during fetal development can alter the projected growth pattern of various organs and systems of the body, leaving the offspring at an increased risk of metabolic disease. The thrifty phenotype hypothesis has been demonstrated as an alteration to the...

Folate, vitamin B12, and vitamin B6 status of a group of high socioeconomic status women in the Alberta Pregnancy Outcomes and Nutrition (APrON) cohort
Download2014-01-01
Fayyaz, Faiqa, Wang, Flora, Jacobs, René L., O'Connor, Deborah L., Bell, Rhonda C., Field, Catherine J.
Folic acid supplementation and food fortification policies have improved folate status in North American women of child bearing age. Recent studies have reported the possible inadequacy of vitamin B12 and B6 in the etiology of neural tube defects in folate-fortified populations. The aims of this...
