Very long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (VLC-PUFAs), such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), have recently made it to the realm of "magical molecules" based on their multiple presumably beneficial effects in biological systems, making these PUFAs particularly interesting

The metabolism of [1-14C] linoleic, [1-14C] arachidonic and [3-14C] docosa-4,7,10,13,16-pentaenoic acids was investigated after intratesticular injection of the labeled compounds and isolation of rat Sertoli and germinal cell. Following injection of either 14C-linoleate or 14C-arachidonate, the specific activity (sp act)

Dietary supplementation with echium oil (EO) containing stearidonic acid (SDA) is a plant-based strategy to improve long-chain (LC) n-3 (ω-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) status in humans. We investigated the effect of EO on LC n-3 PUFA accumulation in blood

It is now established that fatty acid 7,10,13,16-22:4 is metabolized into 4,7,10,13,16-22:5 as follows: 7,10,13,16-22:4-->9,12,15, 18-24:4-->6,9,12,15,18-24:5-->4,7,10,13,16-22:5. Neither C24 fatty acid was esterified to 1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (1-acyl-GPC) by microsomes, whereas the rates of esterification of 4, 7,10,13,16-22:5, 7,10,13,16-22:4 and 5,8,11,14-20:4 were respectively

When rat liver microsomes were incubated with [1-14C]22:4(n-6) under standard conditions for measuring acyl-CoA desaturases, it was not possible to detect the synthesis of any 22:5(n-6). When malonyl-CoA and NADPH were included in the incubation, 22:4(n-6) was chain elongated to
