Abstract: Identifying dietary patterns that contribute to zinc (Zn) and fatty acids intake and their biomarkers that may have an impact on health of males and females. The present study was designed to (a) extract dietary patterns with foods that explain the variation of Zn and PUFAs intake in adult men and women; and (b) evaluate the association between the extracted dietary patterns with circulating levels of serum dihomo-γ-linolenic fatty acid (DGLA) or serum linoleic/dihomo-γ-linolenic (LA/DGLA) ratio in males and f… Show more

“…The LA:DGLA ratio was assessed in a randomized controlled trial in Beninese children, where a negative association was found between the LA:DGLA ratio and plasma Zn concentration at the study baseline, further supporting the value of the LA:DGLA ratio as a potential biomarker of Zn physiological status [34]. Monteiro et al (2021) evaluated the association between Zn and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) intake related to the LA:DGLA ratio, and found an inverse correlation between the LA:DGLA ratio and serum Zn, and associated the LA:DGLA ratio with dietary patterns related to Zn and PUFA intake [33]. Further, King (2018) discussed how in humans, enzymes such as ∆6-desaturase (FADS2, or fatty acid desaturase 2) involved in metabolizing linoleic acid are sensitive to modest changes in dietary Zn [41].…”

“…The ZSI consists of the combination of the LA:DGLA ratio, expression of Zn-related proteins, and alterations in gut microbiome with respect to dietary Zn intake. In recent years, several in vivo and clinical studies have been conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the LA:DGLA ratio in assessing Zn physiological status with respect to dietary Zn intake [13,21,[33][34][35]38]. Given the complexity of Zn metabolism, the association between mRNA gene expression of Zn-related proteins and Zn physiological status can be assessed.…”

“…Meat and meat products have been reported as the main dietary source of Zn exposure in many countries [ 20 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 ]. Other items supplying greater Zn in Western diets include cereals, milk and dairy products, nuts, and seeds [ 31 , 32 ]. Cereals, followed by fresh fruits and vegetables, were considered to be the main sources of Cu in Mediterranean subjects [ 32 , 33 , 34 ].…”
