Omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids: partners in prevention
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition & Metabolic Care, 2010This review addresses the cardiovascular benefits of the two families of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (FAs): omega-6 and omega-3. The former (and the shorter chain species of the latter) are found in vegetable oils and nuts, whereas the longer chain omega-3 FAs are found in fish oils.

Generation of fad2 transgenic mice that produce omega-6 fatty acids
Science in China Series C: Life Sciences, 2009Fatty acid desaturase-2 (FAD2) introduces a double bond in position Delta12 in oleic acid (18:1) to form linoleic acid (18:2 n-6) in higher plants and microbes. A new transgenic expression cassette, containing CMV promoter/fad2 cDNA/SV40 polyA, was constructed to produce transgenic mice.

Anomalous membrane organization by omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids
Physical Chemistry Chemical PhysicsThe effects of omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids on the membrane organization and dynamics were analyzed. Our findings indicate that the degree of unsaturation in the free fatty acids may not directly affect the membrane fluidity.
