Description
Dihomo-γ-Linolenic Acid (DGLA, 20:3), an elongation product of γ-linolenic acid (18:3), is rapidly metabolized by fatty acid desaturases to produce arachidonic acid (20:4). DGLA is metabolized through the cyclooxygenase pathway to produce 1-series prostaglandins, including PGE1. DGLA also inhibits several key cellular processes associated with atherosclerosis.
