Essential fatty acids and the skin
British Journal of Dermatology, 1989The realisation that essential fatty acids are of crucial importance for the maintenance of a healthy skin coincided with their discovery. Burr and Burr (1) first described the symptoms of essential fatty acid deficiency thus: “An abnormal, scaly condition of the skin is observed between the 70th and 90th day of life.

Essential fatty acids and their derivatives
Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2005This review will address recent research in metabolism of essential fatty acids and their long chain derivatives. Our main focus will be the association between essential fatty acid status and various disease states, as well as the effects of supplementation with essential fatty acids or their derivatives on a number of clinical outcomes.There have ...

Essential Fatty Acid Requirements and Intravenous Lipid Emulsions.
JPEN - Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 2019Linoleic acid (LA) and α-linolenic acid (ALA) must be supplied to the human body and are therefore considered essential fatty acids. This narrative review discusses the signs, symptoms, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of essential fatty acid ...

ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS AND PROSTAGLANDINS
1974Arachidonic acid takes part in a number of complicated enzymic processes in which not only the prostaglandins but also the intermediate products of their biosynthesis have important physiological effects. The prostaglandin-synthesizing system can convert a large number of nonnatural substrates, leading to the formation of substituted prostaglandins ...

Nutrition & Food Science, 1972
Essential fatty acids are substances that an animal organism — which includes that of humans — needs for certain physiological and metabolic processes. This is almost a definition of vitamins, and they were indeed known as vitamin F in the early days, but the daily requirement of them is so much greater than that of vitamins that the name has lapsed ...

Essential fatty acids in mitochondria
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1961Abstract The fatty acid contents of mitochondria from chicken liver, beef heart, rat liver, catfish liver, carp liver, salmon liver, and salmon heart were determined by gas-liquid chromatography of the methyl esters. The degree of unsaturation of the fatty acids increased in the above order, and the molar amounts of essential fatty acids, arachidonic

SummaryFor a fatty acid to be an essential component of an animal's diet it must fulfil two criteria, namely (1) it cannot be synthesised in the body and (2) it, or a metabolic derivative, is necessary for normal growth and physiological integrity.

Essential fatty acids and psychiatric disorders.
Nutrition in clinical practice, 2011Psychiatric disorders are a significant source of disability worldwide. Increasing evidence indicates that disturbances of fatty acids and phospholipid metabolism can play a part in a wide range of psychiatric, neurological, and developmental disorders ...

Essential Fatty Acids in Testes
1977Burr & Burr (1929, 1930) originally observed that essential fatty acids are necessary for the maintenance of normal testicular function in rats. Since then the lipid composition of testes and the metabolism of testicular lipids have been studied by many investigators in an attempt to relate these to the development and function of the testis.
