Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Levels of Serum and Red Blood Cells in Apparently Healthy Japanese Subjects Living in an Urban Area

Aim: We assessed levels of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) in serum and red blood cells (RBCs) among groups stratified by generation and its clinical significance in Japanese subjects living in an urban area. Methods: We enrolled 200 apparently healthy Japanese (126 males, mean age: 50.3±9.2 years...

Zusammenfassung:Aim: We assessed levels of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) in serum and red blood cells (RBCs) among groups stratified by generation and its clinical significance in Japanese subjects living in an urban area. Methods: We enrolled 200 apparently healthy Japanese (126 males, mean age: 50.3±9.2 years) living in an urban area. Levels of PUFA, including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), arachidonic acid (AA), and dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA) in serum and RBCs were measured for each generation (G1
