Plasma and erythrocyte fatty acid concentrations in long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency

  • Published:
Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease

Abstract

Plasma and erythrocyte fatty acids have been measured in 9 patients with long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency being treated with a low-fat diet. No significant abnormality was detected and in particular docosahexaenoic acid was not deficient.
