Major Fatty Acids have biologic actions

Research News: Fatty acids serve three primary biologic functions: 1) as cell membrane components that modulate membrane pliability and receptor sensitivity, 2) as precursors to potent biologic regulators such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes, and 3) as modulators of gene expression. Each fatty acid must be either provided by diet or manufactured from enzymatic conversion of its predecessor in order to carry out its physiologic role. Deficiency of any fatty acid results in impairment of physiologic function. These impairments begin subtly and often go unrecognized by clinicians who may then erroneously employ pharmacologic and surgical interventions to alleviate diseases that originate from deficiencies of fatty acids and other nutrients.
