[12 years' analysis of serum fatty acids--final results of the Leipzig Longitudinal Gerontologic Study].
In the Leipzig longitudinal study performed from 1968 to 1980 in 383 test persons with healthy metabolism in 2-3 years time intervals gas-chromatographic analyses of the serum fatty acid pattern were carried out. In dependence upon age, sex, and body-weight the vasoprotective linoleic, linolenic and arachidonic acid increased and the vasoaggressive palmitic and eicosatrienic acid decreased. Influences of age as well as the change of the feeding habits are causally discussed for this purpose.
