Essential fats found to play a role in gene expression

A Canadian study established that essential fats from plants are important regulators of proteins that are exuded by muscle tissue. Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and linoleic acid (LA) are the polyunsaturated fatty acids that greatly affect the expression of genes responsible for skeletal muscle secretome. The study was led by researchers from the University of Guelph. […]
