Summary

Author:Reed S, Qin X, Ran-Ressler R, Brenna JT, Glahn RP, Tako E, USDA-ARS, Robert Holley Center for Agriculture & Health, Ithaca (Openi/National Library of Medicine) Source:https://openi.nlm.nih.gov/detailedresult?img=PMC3967184_nutrients-06-01164-g001&query=Zinc%20deficiency&it=xg&req=4&npos=19 Description:nutrients-06-01164-f001: A truncated schematic of the LA to DGLA fatty acid pathway within the erythrocyte membrane. Lack of dietary zinc (broken line), needed for Δ6 desaturase enzyme function, will impede conversion of reactant (LA) to product (DGLA) and will result in an increased ratio of LA to DGLA. This ratio may be a sensitive biomarker to identify endogenous zinc deficiency.
