HTC cells are able to convert alpha-linolenic acid into higher homologs by desaturating and elongating reactions. When the cells were cultured in a Krebs Ringer bicarbonate solution ("fasted cells") a decrease in both biosynthetic reactions took place. "Refeeding" the cells with Swim's 77 medium wit
## AE-Linolenic acid metabolism in adult humans: the effects of gender and age on conversion to longer-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids This review summarises and evaluates current knowledge of a-linolenic acid (aLNA) metabolism in adult humans. The principal biological role of aLNA appears to be
