“…We utilized the Lands equation (5) to predict AA‐PL compositions as the % n‐6 HUFA from dietary intakes of LA, ALA, AA, and EPA/DHA, with excellent concurrence between calculated ( Supplementary Table S1 online) and experimental values ( and ). Consistent with previous studies (20,21) our results indicate that the elongation and desaturation of ALA to EPA and DHA, and/or the acylation of EPA and DHA into the sn‐2 position of tissue PL, are considerably more effective when dietary LA is below 2 en%. Moreover, in agreement with earlier studies (2124), we show that increasing dietary LA decreased tissue n‐3 HUFA.…”

“…These fatty acids, particularly eicosapentaenoic, 20:5n3 (EPA) and docosahexaenoic, 22:6n3 (DHA) have been reported to prevent cardiovascular, depressions and some other diseases like cancer, inflammatory and autoimmune disorders, inflammation and arrhythmias rheumatoid arthritis (Kinsella, 1986;Kinsella, 1987;Lees and Karel, 1990;Simopoulos et al, 1991;Horrocks and Yeo, 1999;Mori et al, 1999;Babcock et al, 2000;Schmidt et al, 2006;Munakata et al, 2009). Since these fatty acids only occur in high amounts in seafood, it is necessary to determine the fatty acid compositions and total lipid contents of various seafoods in order to recommend a suitable preventive diet for several human diseases.…”

“…Its status is marginal based on circulating concentrations and ratios of other crucial fatty acids such as arachidonic acid and docosapentaenoic acid n-6, a less functional molecule. 16,23,24 Human DHA status is the result of both diet and endogenous synthesis, and deficiency is associated with the risk of a variety of cardiac and mental health conditions. Unbalanced omega-6/omega-3 status and low DHA are associated with cognitive impairment in a study of children with intellectual disabilities, 25 worse outcomes in traumatic brain injury, 26 increased cardiovascular disease risk, 27 sudden death due to cardiovascular disease risk, 27 sudden unexpected death in epilepsy, 28 primary open-angle glaucoma, 29 and age-related macular degeneration.…”
