Pomer polynenasýtených mastných kyselín n-6 a n-3 vo vzťahu k riziku srdcovo-cievnych ochorení
Gregorová, Lívia
The aim of the bachelor's thesis was to create literature research using literature sources to clarify the correlation between the consumption of n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the diet and also their relative proportion in the diet as a prevention or stopping the progression of cardiovascular disease. Furthermore, in this thesis I have elucidated the causes of cardiovascular diseases, I have become familiar with the pathophysiology of these diseases, I have elucidated the function of polyunsaturated fatty acids (α-linolenic acid and its metabolites and linoleic acid and its resulting metabolites) in the human body and their metabolism. Finally, I made dietary recommendations resulting from lifestyle and dietary patterns as well as elucidate risk factors associated with the development of cardiovascular diseases.

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in human nutrition
Hrušovská, Veronika ; Dlouhý, Pavel (advisor) ; Rambousková, Jolana (referee)
This Bachelor thesis deals with the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids used in nutrition. The thesis examines how well students of the Third Faculty of Medicine at the Charles University in Prague are informed about the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and to what extent they consume food rich in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. The theoretical part of the Bachelor thesis focuses on the basic fatty acids theory, the general characteristics of the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and the recommended intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids from foods. It addresses the effects of the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on the prevention and treatment of diseases, their effects on the lipid spectrum, the cardiovascular system, the immune system, the central nervous system and eyesight, diabetology, nutritional pharmacology and the skin. It deals with the significance of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids intake by pregnant and lactating women, children, the elderly and vegans. It specifies the sources of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in nutrition. In the practical part of the Bachelor thesis, the author evaluates an interview survey involving 467 students in all years and from all branches of study at the Third Faculty of Medicine at the Charles University in Prague, who were enrolled in the...

Ovlivnění plazmatické hladiny cholesterolu modelového organizmu polynenasycenými mastnými kyselinami n-3
Čeganová, Markéta
The aim of this thesis is to assess the influence of the polyunsaturated fatty acids, especially DHA and EPA in the diet on the animal organism in accordance to the levels of total HDL and LDL cholesterol and triglycerides in plasma. As experimental animals were used rats and they were divided into 3 groups of 10 pieces: control group with the addition of 6 % Carthamus tinctorius (n-6 flares), the group with the addition of 6 % fish oil (n-3: EPA, DHA fish) and the group with 6 % addition of oil from Schizochytrium (n-3: DHA, DHA). After 40 days the animals were putted to death according to relevant regulations. Blood lipids were obtained from blood samples by spectrophotometry. Value of polyunsaturated fatty acids of n-3 and n-6 was set by gas chromatography in the liver, muscle and adipose tissue. In accordance to the increase of content n-3 PUFA in group with fish oil and with oil from Schizochytrium, total and LDL cholesterol was reduced in comparison of samples in control group. In comparison to the control group were TAG reduced only in the group with addition of oil.
