ABSTRACT
The low incidence of immune inflammatory disorders reported for Eskimos (Chapter 1, Fig. 1-1) provided a hint that perhaps some diseases with disorders in the immune system depend on eicosanoid formation similar to heart disease and heart attacks (Chapters 5 and 6). The network of cellular signals that maintains immune responses has much that remains unknown, but eicosanoids are known to participate. Therefore EFA are also involved.
