The essentiality of arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid [PDF]
Prostaglandins, Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, 2009 The purpose of this review is to correlate the clinical finding that patients receiving parenteral nutrition with a fish oil-based lipid emulsion do not develop essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD) with an experimental murine model, thus showing that arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are likely to be the essential fatty acids ...

Maresin biosynthesis and identification of maresin 2, a new anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving mediator from human macrophages. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Maresins are a new family of anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving lipid mediators biosynthesized from docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) by macrophages. Here we identified a novel pro-resolving product, 13R,14S-dihydroxy-docosahexaenoic acid (13R,14S-diHDHA ...

Docosahexaenoic Acid and Preterm Birth [PDF]
Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism, 2016 Preterm birth accounts for more than 85% of all perinatal complications and deaths. There are many short- and long-term consequences of being born too soon. These infants often require intensive care and are at increased risk of early morbidities often with life-long sequelae.

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), essentiality and requirements: why and how to provide supplementation
Grasas y Aceites, 2006 Lipids comprize from 50-60% of the structural matter of the brain and docosahexaenoic acid (C22:6, DHA) is the most important omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid in the brain phospholipids comprizing 25% of the total fatty acids of the grey ...

Effect of diet on the rate of depletion of n–3 fatty acids in the retina of the guinea pig
Journal of Lipid Research, 1998 This study has assessed the influence of maternal n–3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid supply and dietary manipulation after weaning on the retinal polyunsaturated fatty acid profile.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1997 In order to understand the mechanisms by which fatty acids are taken up by the placenta, the uptake of oleic, linoleic, arachidonic, and docosahexaenoic acids by cultured human placental choriocarcinoma (BeWo) cells was examined.
