Abstract

See full text

Disclosed are novel oxylipins, referred to herein as docosanoids and eicosanoids, that are derived from C22 polyunsaturated fatty acids and from C20 polyunsaturated fatty acids, respectively, and methods of making and using such oxylipins. Also disclosed is the use of docosapentaenoic acid (C22:5n-6) (DPAn-6), docosapentaenoic acid (C22:5n-3) (DPAn-3), and docosatetraenoic acid (DTAn-6: C22:4n-6), docosatrienoic acid (C22:3n-3) (DTrAn-3), docosadienoic acid (C22:2n-6) (DDAn-6), eicosatrienoic acid (C20:3n-3) (ETrAn-3) eicosapentaenoic acid and arachidonic acid as substrates for the production of novel oxylipins, and to the oxylipins produced thereby. Also disclosed is the use of DPAn-6, DPAn-3, DTAn-6, and/or the oxylipins derived therefrom, and/or novel docosanoids derived from the structures of C22 fatty acids in therapeutic and nutritional or cosmetic applications, and particularly as anti-inflammatory or anti-neurodegenerative compounds. The invention also relates to novel ways of producing long chain polyunsaturated acid (LCPUF A)-rich oils and compositions that contain enhanced and effective amounts of LCPUF A-derived oxylipins, and particularly, docosanoids.
