Antithetic relationship of dietary arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid on eicosanoid production in vivo
Eicosanoids are oxidative derivatives of arachidonic acid. When produced in excessive amounts, many are proinflammatory and/or prothrombotic agents. N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) have been used to attenuate tissue arachidonic acid (AA, 20:4 n-6) levels and thus modulate eicosanoid productio...
