Elovl2 ablation demonstrates that systemic DHA is endogenously produced and is essential for lipid homeostasis in mice

The potential role of endogenously synthesized PUFAs is a highly overlooked area. Elongation of very long-chain fatty acids (ELOVLs) in mammals is catalyzed by the ELOVL enzymes to which the PUFA elongase ELOVL2 belongs. To determine its in vivo function, we have investigated how ablation of ELOVL2,...
