Erythrocyte phospholipid and polyunsaturated fatty acid composition in diabetic retinopathy.

Erythrocyte phospholipid and polyunsaturated fatty acid composition in diabetic retinopathy.

Long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) including docosahexaenoic acid and arachidonic acid are suspected to play a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetes. LCPUFAs are known to be preferentially concentrated in specific phospholipids termed as plasmalogens. This study was aimed to highlig...
