Baked cod consumption delayed the development of kidney and liver dysfunction and affected plasma amino acid concentrations, but did not affect blood pressure, blood glucose or liver triacylglycerol concentrations in obese fa/fa Zucker rats.
Vikøren, Linn A.; Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Midttun, Øivind; McCann, Adrian; Bergseth, Marthe Tønder; Austgulen, Maren H.; Mellgren, Gunnar; Ueland, Per Magne; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Obesity is associated with changes in amino acid metabolism, and studies show that ingestion of fish proteins influence amino acid composition in plasma and urine, in addition to affecting risk factors for metabolic syndrome. ... -
Cod Residual Protein Prevented Blood Pressure Increase in Zucker fa/fa Rats, Possibly by Inhibiting Activities of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme and Renin
Vildmyren, Iselin Thowsen; Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Oterhals, Åge; Ween, Ola; Halstensen, Alfred; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-11-22)Hypertension is the leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and prevention of high blood pressure through diet and lifestyle should be a preferred approach. High intake of fish is associated with lower blood pressure, ... -
Dietary fish intake increased the concentration of soluble ACE2 in rats: can fish consumption reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection through interception of SARS-CoV-2 by soluble ACE2?
O'Keeffe, Maria; Oterhals, Åge; Vikøren, Linn Anja Slåke; Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Mellgren, Gunnar; Halstensen, Alfred; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) enters the cells after binding to the membrane-bound receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), but this may be prevented through interception by soluble ... -
Different Dietary Ratios of Camelina Oil to Sandeel Oil Influence the Capacity to Synthesise and Deposit EPA and DHA in Zucker Fa/Fa Rats
Østbye, Tone-Kari K; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita; Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Ruyter, Bente Synnøve; Berge, Gerd Marit; Vogt, Kjell Gjermund; Nilsson, Astrid (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-17)Plant-based food provides more ALA (α-linolenic acid) and less EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexanoic acid) than marine food. Earlier studies indicate that cetoleic acid (22:1n-11) stimulates the n-3 pathway ... -
Effects of baked and raw salmon fillet on lipids and n-3 PUFAs in serum and tissues in Zucker fa/fa rats
Vikøren, Linn Anja Slåke; Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Bergseth, Marthe Tønder; Mjøs, Svein Are; Mola, Nazanin; Leh, Sabine Maria; Mellgren, Gunnar; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Knowledge of the health impact of consuming heat-treated versus raw fish fillet is limited. To investigate effects of baked or raw salmon fillet intake on lipids and n-3 PUFAs in serum and tissues, obese Zucker fa/fa rats ... -
Effects of intact and hydrolysed blue whiting proteins on blood pressure and markers of kidney function in obese Zucker fa/fa rats
Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Oterhals, Åge; Mjøs, Svein Are; Vikøren, Linn Anja Slåke; Flesland, Ola; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Purpose To investigate the effects of diets containing intact or hydrolysed proteins from blue whiting (Micromesistius poutassou) on the development of high blood pressure and markers of kidney function in obese Zucker ... -
Intake of baked cod fillet resulted in lower serum cholesterol and higher long chain n-3 PUFA concentrations in serum and tissues in hypercholesterolemic obese Zucker fa/fa rats
Vikøren, Linn Anja Slåke; Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Bergseth, Marthe Tønder; Mjøs, Svein Are; Austgulen, Maren Hoff; Mellgren, Gunnar; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-06-28)Increasing evidence indicates that lean fish consumption may benefit cardiovascular health. High cholesterol and low n-3 PUFA concentrations in serum are associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease; therefore, ... -
Salmon fillet intake led to higher serum triacylglycerol in obese zucker Fa/Fa rats but not in normolipidemic Long-Evans rats
Vikøren, Linn Anja Slåke; Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Mjøs, Svein Are; Mellgren, Gunnar; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-10-08)The triacylglycerol lowering effect of fatty fish and fish oils is well recognized, however we recently showed that salmon intake resulted in higher serum triacylglycerol concentration in obese Zucker fa/fa rats. Since ... -
Urine and plasma concentrations of amino acids and plasma vitamin status differ, and are differently affected by salmon intake, in obese Zucker fa/fa rats with impaired kidney function and in Long-Evans rats with healthy kidneys
Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Midttun, Øivind; Vikøren, Linn Anja Slåke; McCann, Adrian; Ueland, Per Magne; Mellgren, Gunnar; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Kidney function affects amino acid metabolism and vitamin status. The aims of the present study were to investigate urine and plasma concentrations of amino acids as well as plasma vitamin status in rats with impaired renal ... -
Water-soluble fish protein intake led to lower serum and liver cholesterol concentrations in obese zucker fa/fa rats
Drotningsvik, Aslaug; Vikøren, Linn Anja Slåke; Mjøs, Svein Are; Oterhals, Åge; Pampanin, Daniela Maria; Flesland, Ola; Gudbrandsen, Oddrun Anita (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-05-01)Proteins from different fish species and different raw materials such as fish fillets and by-products have shown promising cardioprotective effects in rodents and humans, including effects on cholesterol metabolism.
