Fatty acids and glaucoma

Acta Ophthalmologica, 2014
AbstractRetinal cell membranes are known to be rich in ether‐linked phospholipids also termed as “plasmalogens”. Although their functions remain enigmatic, plasmalogens are considered as reservoirs of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). These PUFAs were shown to be released from plasmalogens by specific enzymes under specific conditions in order to ...

Myocardial fatty acid metabolism in health and disease.

Physiological Reviews, 2010
There is a constant high demand for energy to sustain the continuous contractile activity of the heart, which is met primarily by the beta-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids.

Fatty Acids

2003
Fatty acids are monocarbonic acids with chain lengths between 2 and 26 (and sometimes more). Most fatty acids in plants and animals have an even carbon number and no branching. One or more double bonds may occur, mostly in cis configuration. More than 40 different fatty acids are commonly encountered in foods.

Fatty Acids and Immunity

1978
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses fatty acids and immunity. Like all mammalian cells, lymphocytes contain a variety of fatty acids, some of which, the essential fatty acids, must be supplied to the cells because they are unable to synthesize them.

Fatty acids of dermatophytes

Medical Mycology, 1980
The cellular fatty acids (C11-C20) from 18 species and strains within the genera Microsporum, Trichophyton, and Epidermophyton were determined by gas liquid chromatography. In addition, the effects of incubation time and temperature on fatty acid composition were investigated in selected species.

The Essential Fatty Acids

1970
Publisher Summary This chapter explains structural requirements, metabolism of action, and the role of the essential fatty acids. These acids are metabolized in ways common to other unsaturated fatty acids. In addition, the unsaturated acids possessing the 9, 12 double bond system (C18 acids) or the 11–14 double bond system (C20 acids) possesses ...

Essential Fatty Acids

Nature, 1962
PREVIOUS work1 on the relationship between chemical structure and biological activity of fatty acids was based on the theory that either the 6-term. (that is, a double bond between the 6th and 7th carbon-atom counted from the terminal methyl group) or the 9-term. double bonds or both were fundamental for essential fatty acid activity. By means of a new

Essentiality of fatty acids

Lipids, 1999
AbstractAll fatty acids have important functions, but the term “essential” is applied only to those polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) that are necessary for good health and cannot be completely synthesized in the body. The need for arachidonic acid, which is utilized for eicosanoid synthesis and is a constituent of membrane phospholipids involved in ...
