Relationship between fatty acids of adipose tissue and plasma cholesterol

A Bucalossi et al. Gerontol Clin (Basel). 1975.

Abstract

The fatty acid composition of adipose tissue from normal and hypercholesterolemic men and women was studied. We found a difference in the fatty acid composition between both sexes. A decrease in linoleic acid was found in hypercholesterolemic men, while there was an increase in palmitic and totally saturated acids in women. A decrease in total monounsaturated and in monounsaturated/saturated ratio was also found in women.
