Plasma omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and macular pigment optical density in subjects at high risk for age-related macular degeneration: the Lim…
2016
This is an abstract that was submitted for the 2016 ARVO Annual Meeting, held in Seattle, Wash., May 1-5, 2016.; Purpose: In numerous epidemiological studies, omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have been associated with a decreased risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Beyond their structural, functional and neuroprotective roles, omega 3 PUFAs may favor the retinal accumulation of lutein and zeaxanthin and thus increase macular pigment optical density (MPOD). We examined the associations of MPOD with plasma omega 3 PUFAs in subjects with at least one parent affected by neovascular AMD. Methods: The Limpia study is a double-blind, placebo controlled, prospective randomize…
Determination of fatty acids and lipid classes in salmon oil by near infrared spectroscopy
2017
International audience; Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy was evaluated as a rapid method for the determination of oleic, palmitic, linoleic and linolenic acids as well as omega-3, omega-6, and to predict polyunsaturated, monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids, together with triacylglycerides, diglycerides, free fatty acids and ergosterol in salmon oil. To do it, Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression models were applied to correlate NIR spectra with aforementioned fatty acids and lipid classes. Results obtained were validated in front of reference procedures based on high performance thin layer and gas chromatography. PLS-NIR has a good predictive capability with relative root mean squar…
Participation des facteurs nutritionnels et environnementaux au vieillissement de la rétine et aux rétinopathies liées à l’âge
2012
Aging is defined by all the physiological processes that alter the structure and functions of the body. With advanced age, aging of the human retina can evolve into pathological forms, agerelated macular degeneration (AMD) or diabetic retinopathy (DR). The mechanisms involved in the transition from normal aging to a pathologic state are poorly understood. Oxidative stress and advanced glycation end-products are promoting factors for aging of the retina. Meanwhile, epidemiological studies suggest that a diet rich in long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) such as EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), potentially protects against the development of AMD a…
Participation of nutritional and environmental factors in aging of the retina and age-related retinopathies
2012
With advanced age, aging of the human retina can evolve into pathological forms, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or diabetic retinopathy (DR). Meanwhile, epidemiological studies suggest that a diet rich in long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) such as EPA and DHA, potentially protects against the development of AMD and insulin resistance, the main risk factor for DR. Within this context, our research objectives were to assess: 1 - the impact of endogen and environmental factors, known to trigger oxidative stress, advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) or insulin resistance, on the function and aging of the retina, and 2 - the response of the retina to a omega-3 LC-…
Micronutrition : de la théorie à l'application en clinique
2010
National audience; Les prévisions démographiques s'attendent à un accroissement important de la population âgée et très âgée dans les décennies à venir. La prévalence des pathologies oculaires occupe la deuxième place dans cette frange de la population, laissant entrevoir une réelle explosion du coût social et économique associé à la prise en charge des patients. Pourtant, des données théoriques suggèrent que certains nutriments, en particulier lipophiles, pourraient participer à prévenir les effets du vieillissement sur la rétine et le développement pathologique. Ces hypothèses sont corroborées par des données épidémiologiques qui renforcent l'association entre la consommation d'acides gra…
Lionel Brétillon et son équipe récompensés par la Fondation de France
2017
Le 2 février dernier, au Collège de France, à Paris, Lionel Brétillon, Directeur de l’unité CSGA et Responsable de l’équipe « Œil, nutrition et signalisation cellulaire », a reçu le Prix de la Fondation de l’Œil pour des recherches qui ont mis en évidence le lien entre la consommation d’Omégas 3 et la protection de la rétine de l'œil.Ce prix doté de 50 000 € couronne le travail mené avec son équipe depuis 2004. Ces recherches marquent une étape importante dans la prévention de la dégénérescence maculaire liée à l'âge (DMLA).En tout, 18 équipes de chercheurs ont été primées pour un total de 406 000 euros dédiés à la recherche médicale. Ces équipes ont été soutenues par 11 associations rassem…
Omega-3 Extraction from Anchovy Fillet Leftovers with Limonene: Chemical, Economic, and Technical Aspects
2019
International audience; We investigate selected chemical, technical, and economic aspects of the production of fish oil rich in polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids from anchovy filleting leftovers using d-limonene as the extraction solvent at ambient temperature and pressure. Entirely derived from the orange peel prior to orange squeezing for juice production, the bio-based solvent is easily recovered, affording a circular economy process with significant potential for practical applications.

Impact of a reduction of plasmalogen levels on Muller cell metabolism
2016
Purpose : Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is the leading cause of blindness in premature children resulting from abnormal vascular development. Previous studies have shown that omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) can modulate physiologic and pathologic angiogenesis. Data from our laboratory suggest that plasmalogens, that are phospholipids that concentrate omega-3 PUFAs, are involved in the regulation of post-natal retinal vascular development through the action of a calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) (Saab et al PLoSONE 2014). In the retina, Müller cells are known to play crucial functions in retinal angiogenesis as well as to be rich in plasmalogens and to express phosp…
