    Dietary eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid for mitochondrial biogenesis and dynamics
    (Elsevier, 2023-02-22) Jannas-Vela, Sebastian; Castro-Sepulveda, Mauricio
    It appears that n-3 PUFA supplementation has a minimal effect on mitochondrial biogenesis in humans. However, recent studies suggest a positive effect of n-3 PUFAs on mitochondrial function and dynamics. Further studies are needed to fully understand the mechanism behind these adaptations, mainly focusing on the association between mitochondrial dynamics and mitochondrial function (e.g., bioenergetics). We hypothesize that incorporation of n-3 PUFAs into the mitochondrial membrane favors mitochondrial fusion, leading to improved mitochondrial function and enhanced skeletal muscle health.
