The effects of oils with different amounts of n6 and n3 fatty acid precursors and derivatives were evaluated on phospholipid composition and PGE2 synthesis of rat kidneys. Dietary lipids were: olive oil, an olive-blackcurrant-fish oil mixture and a blackcurrant-fish oil mixture. We observed in the kidneys of rats fed the blackcurrant-fish oil mixture a significant decrease in PGE2 synthesis, while arachidonate values did not show significant variations. A decrease of PGE2 synthesis could be due to competitive and inhibitory effects of fatty acids other than arachidonate, observed in the kidney phospholipid composition in our dietary conditions.

D010743 Phospholipids Lipids containing one or more phosphate groups, particularly those derived from either glycerol (phosphoglycerides see GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS) or sphingosine (SPHINGOLIPIDS). They are polar lipids that are of great importance for the structure and function of cell membranes and are the most abundant of membrane lipids, although not stored in large amounts in the system.

D005227 Fatty Acids Organic, monobasic acids derived from hydrocarbons by the equivalent of oxidation of a methyl group to an alcohol, aldehyde, and then acid.

D015232 Dinoprostone The most common and most biologically active of the mammalian prostaglandins. It exhibits most biological activities characteristic of prostaglandins and has been used extensively as an oxytocic agent. The compound also displays a protective effect on the intestinal mucosa.

D016718 Arachidonic Acid An unsaturated, essential fatty acid. It is found in animal and human fat as well as in the liver, brain, and glandular organs, and is a constituent of animal phosphatides. It is formed by the synthesis from dietary linoleic acid and is a precursor in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes.
