The aim of my thesis on topic The effect of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the diet of rats on expression of selected genes was to investigate the effect of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosapentaenoic acid (DHA) on the expression of genes which encode GPR120, AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 receptors in relation to suppress low-grade chronic inflammation in organism to reduce the risk of atherosclerosis by dietary intervention in rats. Rats were fed by a mixture MYPO with 6 % safflower oil (diet S), 6 % fish oil (diet F) or 6 % of oil from algae Schizochytrium (diet A). Gene expression was measured by quantitative real-time PCR method and the results were evaluated by using the software qbase + (Biogazelle NV). Relative expression of GPR120 gene was in F diet 88 % (P > 0,05), in A diet 93 % (P > 0,05) in comparison with control group (100 %). Relative expression of ADIPOR1 gene was in F diets and A diet 82 % (P < 0,05) in comparison with the control group. For ADIPOR2 gene relative expression was 71 % (P < 0,05) in diet F and 68 % (P < 0,05) in diet A. The results were contrary to our hypothesis. However, they exactly match the results of other studies in the available literature. It would be appropriate to carry out further studies on this issue.
