Docosapentaenoic acid (Item No. 90165) is a 22-carbon fatty acid found in fish oils. It is a minor constituent of the total serum unsaturated fatty acids in humans, ranging from 0.1 to 1%, and increases on dietary supplementation.{1936} all-cis-4,7,10,13,16-Docosapentaenoic acid, also known as osbond acid, is an isomer of docosapentaenoic acid. It is an ω-6 fatty acid formed by the elongation and desaturation of arachidonic acid (Item No. 90010). Levels of this fatty acid may be diminished during fatty acid desaturase syndrome and this may affect development.{27613} Upregulated expression of hepatic elongation of very long fatty acids protein 6 and increased levels of very long chain fatty acids, including all-cis-4,7,10,13,16-docosapentaenoic acid, are characteristic of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, a preneoplastic condition of hepatocellular carcinoma.{27614}
