The influence of FADS genetic variation and omega-3 fatty acid deficiency on cardiometabolic disease risk in a Mexican American population

10 Mar 2025

Abstract excerpt

Background Latinos, the largest racial/ethnic minority group in the United States, have high rates of cardiometabolic diseases, hypothesized due in part to genetic variation in the fatty acid desaturase ( FADS ) cluster that is associated with reduced omega-3 (n-3) highly unsaturated fatty acid (HUFA) biosynthesis. This study examined how variations in FADS and other HUFA pathway-related genes ( ELOVL5 and ELOVL2...
