Summary

ABSTRACT

Epigenetic mechanisms may be involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism and inflammatory markers may therefore contribute to the cardiovascular risk profile, as well as environmental factors have a significant impact on the epigenetic program of gene expression. Methyl groups are usually added or removed as needed and can be influenced by diet soon, dietary factors have been linked to the change of DNA methylation, resulting in changes in gene expression. Research on the prevalence of gene methylation levels on the impact of nutrient intake, as well as the inflammatory condition and the results of dietary interventions for the genes, it is a sparse area in studies and, therefore, expanding of the knowledge. Thus, understanding the effects of a diet rich in antioxidants and hazelnut oil, in inflammation and DNA methylation profile is important because chronic diseases with cardiovascular disease can begin with the consumption of modified lipids and can research this stage provide important dietary allowances for the development of this disease prevention strategies even in adulthood. This PhD project is linked to a larger project entitled "II Diagnosis Cycle and Intervention Food Situation, Nutrition and Noncommunicable Diseases Prevalent over the City Population of João Pessoa / PB" (II DISANDNT / PB) and have two methodological designs: the first one is the composition of a representative sample of adults in the city of João Pessoa, from II DISANDNT / JP, population-based study and cross-sectional. The second methodological design was developed with a subsample of the above population, selected from criteria being the type and interventional clinical trial. This model will have to evaluate the effect of a diet rich in antioxidant and hazelnut oil, in inflammation and gene expression.
