The impact of FADS genetic variants on ω6 polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism in African Americans

Background Arachidonic acid (AA) is a long-chain omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) synthesized from the precursor dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA) that plays a vital role in immunity and inflammation. Variants in the Fatty Acid Desaturase ( FADS ) family of genes on chromosome 11q have bee...
