Molecular Evaluation of Omega-3 Fatty Acids Impact on Arterial Elasticity and Cardiovascular Health in Cattle

الملخص

Due to the global increasing impact of bovine congestive heart failure (BCHF) on animals, cardiovascular disease (CVD) has become a major concern for animal health, welfare, and economic sustainability. Although, the availability of diagnostic methods, such as biochemical assays and echocardiography, early diagnosis faces barriers related to cost, accessibility, and accuracy, in which the majority of cases remains undetected. Recently, nutritional interventions including omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FAs) have proven capacity to influence cardiovascular function, immune response, vascular flexibility, and overall metabolic health. Hence, this study aimed to theoretical investigate the physiological and molecular processes by which omega-3 fatty acids influence the cardiovascular health of cattle. As a result, this research confirms the potential of dietary omega-3 fatty acids to enhance the nutritional content of cattle-derived food products, improve cardiovascular function in cows, and promote animal welfare by combining the findings of previous studies. In veterinary cardiology, omega-3 fatty acids are ultimately considered an effective preventative measure linking human nutrition, agricultural sustainability, and animal health.
