Long-chain conversion of [13C]linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid in response to marked changes in their dietary intake in men

We studied the long-chain conversion of [U-13C]α-linolenic acid (ALA) and linoleic acid (LA) and responses of erythrocyte phospholipid composition to variation in the dietary ratios of 18:3n-3 (ALA) and 18:2n-6 (LA) for 12 weeks in 38 moderately hyperlipidemic men. Diets were enriched with either fl...
