2. Eicosatetraenoic acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eicosatetraenoic_acid

   It is formed by a desaturation of dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA, 20:3 ω-6). all-cis-8,11,14,17-eicosatetraenoic acid is an ω-3 fatty acid. It is an intermediate between stearidonic acid (18:4 ω-3) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5 ω-3) Some chemistry sources define 'arachadonic acid' to designate any of the eicosatetraenoic acids.

   EPA is a straight-chain, 20 carbon omega-3 fatty acid containing cis double bonds between carbons 5 and 6, 8 and 9, 11 and 12, 14 and 15, and 17 and 18; each of these double bonds is designated with the notation Z to indicate its cis configuration in the IUPAC Chemical nomenclature used here. EPA is therefore 5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z-eicosapentaenoic ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihomo-γ-linolenic_acid

   Dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA) is a 20-carbon ω−6 fatty acid (also called, cis,cis,cis-8,11,14-eicosatrienoic acid). In physiological literature, it is given the name 20:3 (ω−6). DGLA is a carboxylic acid with a 20-carbon chain and three cis double bonds; the

   Mammals are unable to synthesize omega−3 fatty acids, but can obtain the shorter-chain omega−3 fatty acid ALA (18 carbons and 3 double bonds) through diet and use it to form the more important long-chain omega−3 fatty acids, EPA (20 carbons and 5 double bonds) and then from EPA, the most crucial, DHA (22 carbons and 6 double bonds).

   Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), i.e. 5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z,17Z-eicosapentaenoic acid is an ω−3 fatty acid with five cis double bonds, each located between carbons 5-6, 8-9, 11-12, 14-15, and 17-18. Dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid ( DGLA ), i.e. 8 Z ,11 Z ,14 Z -eicosatrienoic acid is an ω−6 fatty acid with three cis double bonds, each located between ...
