FADS genetic variants and ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism in a homogeneous island population[S]

FADS genetic variants and ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism in a homogeneous island population[S]

Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) orchestrate immunity and inflammation through their capacity to be converted to potent inflammatory mediators. We assessed associations of FADS gene cluster polymorphisms and fasting serum PUFA concentrations in a fully ascertained, geographically isolat...
