Phospholipid and Fatty Acid Specificity of Endothelial Lipase: Potential Role of the Enzyme in the Delivery of Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) to Tissues

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6 n-3) is an essential fatty acid required for the normal function of several tissues, especially the brain. Previous studies suggested that lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC) is a preferred carrier of DHA to the brain, although the pathways of the formation of DHA-contai...
