The effect of omega3 fatty acid supplementation on PPARγ and UCP2 expressions, resting energy expenditure, and appetite in athletes

Abstract: Background Omega3 fatty acids as a ligand of energy-related genes, have a role in metabolism, and energy expenditure. These effects are due to changes in the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) and uncoupling protein2 (UCP2). This study evaluated the effect of omega3 supplements on PPARγ mRNA expression and UCP2 mRNA expression and protein levels, as regulators of energy metabolism, resting energy expenditure (REE), and appetite in athletes. … Show more

“…Some studies suggested that the involvement of adiponectin in energy homeostasis probably mediated through the regulation of uncoupling proteins (UCPs), a family of transporters that present in the mitochondria inner membrane. Animal studies showed that adiponectin administration up-regulates UCP2 expression in the liver tissues of adiponectin knockout mice 58 , 59 and this may increase REE 60 , 61 . In another study, intracerebroventricular administration of adiponectin in mice induced UCP1 mRNA expression and decreasing the body weight, while not affecting the food intake 62 .…”

“…Omega-3 fatty acids improve neurological and cognitive functions, leading to enhanced interactions between neuron-muscle receptors, pronounced physical activity, and muscle contraction [ 45 ]. Omega-3 fatty acids may enhance energy metabolism in skeletal muscles to produce and consume energy efficiently [ 32 46 ], resulting in skeletal muscle mass and activity. As omega-3 fatty acids are known to enhance blood flow [ 45 ], a fluent and sufficient supply of nutrients to the muscle could lead to an increase in muscle content and mass.…”

“…Whilst supplements are a convenient method of achieving a daily dose of n-3 PUFA, if not consumed with food, they are unlikely to achieve satiety the same way a portion of sardines or another oily fish would. Interestingly, several studies investigating the effects of n-3 PUFA and fish oil have demonstrated an increase in appetite in healthy and diseased individuals associated with their supplementation ( 99 , 120 , 121 ). Moreover, n-3 PUFA have been shown to possess orexigenic properties, increasing neuropeptide Y and decreased α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone and serotonin receptor activity in tumour bearing anorexic rats ( 122 ).…”
