High impact information on Eicosenoic acid

  • The Elovl3-ablated mice displayed a sparse hair coat, the pilosebaceous system was hyperplastic, and the hair lipid content was disturbed with exceptionally high levels of eicosenoic acid (20:1) [1].
  • The effect of clofibrate on heart and plasma lipids in rats fed a diet containing 30% of the calories as peanut oil (PO) or rapeseed oil (RSO) (42.7% erucic acid and 0.5% eicosenoic acid) was studied [2].
  • Perirenal fat contained more 20:5n-3 (EPA) and 22:6n-3 (DHA), but less 20:1n-9 (eicosenoic acid) than the backfat, after cod liver oil supplementation rich in these 3 fatty acids [3].
