• In lipid science , Eicosanoids are a subclass of organic compounds in the fatty acyl class [FA class] of the lipids superclass generally derived from unsaturated C20 fatty acids or skeletally related compounds, that have hormone-like effects ( autacoid effects , mediated by specialized eicosanoid receptors ). (wellnessadvantage.com)
  • In our body, Eicosanoids are a family of signaling molecules (hormone-like substances) derived from the oxidation of twenty-carbon Essential Fatty Acids, (EFAs). (wellnessadvantage.com)

  • Each phospholipid molecule contains two fatty acids. (wellnessadvantage.com)
  • Some of these fatty acids are the 20-carbon essential Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs) AA, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or DGLA. (wellnessadvantage.com)
  • In response to some inflammatory signals, these EFAs are cleaved out of the phospholipid and released as free fatty acids. (wellnessadvantage.com)
