FADS gene cluster polymorphisms: important modulators of fatty acid levels and their impact on atopic diseases.

Journal of nutrigenetics and nutrigenomics - 1 Jan 2009

Lattka Eva, Illig Thomas, Heinrich Joachim, Koletzko Berthold

Abstract excerpt

Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) play an important role in several physiological processes and their concentration in phospholipids has been associated with several complex diseases, such as atopic disease. The level and composition of LC-PUFAs in the human body is highly dependent on their intake in the diet or on the intake of fatty acid precursors, which are endogenously elongated and...
