Fatty Acids and Their Roles in Cardiac Physiology and Pathology: Mechanistic and Interventional Studies
2026-04-27
Abstract excerpt
Fatty acids serve dual roles in cardiac physiology: as energy substrates and precursors of bioactive lipid mediators (prostaglandins, leukotrienes, oxylipins) from n-3/n-6 PUFAs that regulate inflammation, thrombosis, and remodeling. Saturated, monounsaturated, and trans fatty acids modulate metabolism and membrane function, shaping these pathways.Clinically, n-3 long-chain PUFAs (EPA and DHA) reduce cardiovascula...
