The inverse association between relative abundances of oleic acid and arachidonic acid: a case of distribution dependent regulation?

Abstract Background Since oleic acid (OA, 18:1 c9) and arachidonic acid (AA, 20:4 n6) may have antagonistic actions, it is of interest to assess their relative abundances. We previously reported an inverse correlation between % OA and %AA. However, percentages of the same sum may be correlated witho...
