Abstract

Kako se kontinuirano teži napretku i poboljšanju svojstava kvalitete mesa provedena su brojna istraživanja na raznim vrstama životinja da bi se bolje razumio utjecaj hrane, odnosno njezinih komponenata na metabolizam masti. Nove metode molekularne genetike omogućuju istraživanje utjecaja različitih hranjivih tvari na ekspresiju pojedinih gena. Istraživanje utjecaja pojedinih hranjiva na ekspresiju gena uključenih u metabolizam masti od posebnog je značaja kako u objašnjenju mehanizama nastanka pojedinih zdravstvenih poremećaja kod ljudi tako i u ispoljavanju proizvodnih svojstava kod domaćih životinja kao što su dnevni prirast, konverzija hrane, sastav trupa i svojstva kakvoće mišićnog i masnog tkiva. U ovom radu detaljno su opisani i objašnjeni utjecaji pojedinih nutritivnih čimbenika kao što su vitamini A i E, masnih kiselina i složenih šećera na metabolizam masti. Nadalje opisani su geni s koji su uključeni u metabolizam masti.

Abstract (english)

Many investigations are conducted towards development and improvement of meat quality traits on different species of animals, with goal to better understand effect of diet, or its components lipid metabolism. New methods in the field of molecular genetics allow exploration of the influence of different nutrients on expression of certain genes. Exploring the effect of certain nutrients on expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism is meaningful from the aspect of understanding the mechanism of development of certain diseases in humans as well as production characteristics in domestic animals such as daily gain, feed conversion ratio, body composition and quality of muscle and adipose tissue. The influence of certain nutritive components such as vitamin E and A, fatty acids and complex sugars on lipid metabolism is described and explained in this paper it is described and explained the influence of certain nutritive components such as vitamin E and A, fatty acids and complex sugars on lipid metabolism. Furthermore, it was described the influence of certain genes on lipid metabolism.
