The effects of two sources of omega-3 fatty acids and fibrate on biometric characteristics, biochemical analysis, fat deposition and gene expression of PPARα in Holtzamn rats induced to obesity were evaluated. The study divided into two phases (F): F1, 30 days of induction to obesity; F2, 30 days of allocation of treatments (T). In F2, 35 male Holtzman rats were randomly distributed into 5 treatments with 7 repetitions each: T1, standard diet (DE) + placebo; T2: obesogenic diet (DO) + Placebo; T3: DO + fish oil (0.5ml / kg weight); T4: DO + flaxseed oil (0.5ml / kg weight) and T5: DO + fibrate (100mg / kg weight). At the end of each phase, biometric measurements and blood samples were taken in order to determine lipid profile and glucose level. At the end of the study, the animals were euthanized then liver samples were taken for the analysis of gene expression and at the same time adipose tissue from four different sections (abdominal, inguinal, perirenal and epididymal) were extracted. The data obtained were subjected to ANOVA process under the Completely Randomized Design and the difference of means was determined with the LSD test using the MINITAB program. At the end of the F1, no differences were found (P> 0.05) for any measured variable. On the other hand, at the end of the F2, differences were found (P <0.05) for HDL-C, total fat, liver weight and food intake; while the relative expression of PPARα at the liver level showed no differences (P> 0.05); however, fish oil presented the highest value. In conclusion, the two sources of omega-3 fatty acids and fibrate did not generate differences in any biometric variables, triglycerides, glucose and relative expression of PPARα but it did influenced (P<0.05) HDL-C level, total fat, liver weight and food intake.
