Abstract excerpt
The lipid membrane bilayer undergoes continuous changes, and its lipid composition is both adaptive and highly varied, with substantial molecular variety. The balance of dietary fats, namely saturated versus unsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) of the n-6 series versus those of the n-3 series, may change membrane composition thus affecting membrane order, intracellular signaling processes, and gene...
