Effects of Varying Dietary Docosahexaenoic, Eicosapentaenoic, Linoleic, and α-Linolenic Acid Levels on Fatty Acid Composition of Phospholipids and Neutral Lipids in the Liver of Atlantic Salmon, Salmo salar.

Fish oil, the most abundant natural source of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), is a limited resource; however, terrestrial oils are used as an alternative in fish nutrition. The liver of Atlantic salmon is able to synthesize these two long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3LC-PUFAs) from α-linolenic acid (ALA), but the dietary levels of EPA + DHA and the ratios of linoleic acid (LNA) to ALA may affect its abilities. Feeding Atlantic salmon four experimental diets containing EPA + DHA at 0.3 and 1.0% of dietary levels accompanied with high and low LNA/ALA ratios showed that low LNA/ALA ratios increased the proportions of EPA + DHA in phospholipids (PLs) and neutral lipids (NLs). The pattern of PL-to-NL ratios of n-3 LC-PUFA proportions matched the saw tooth pattern of LNA/ALA ratios in diets. Overall, when fish oil is removed from salmon diets, the dietary LNA/ALA ratio must be reduced to stimulate biosynthesis of n-3 LC-PUFAs in the liver.
