palmitic acid and Asthma

palmitic acid has been researched along with Asthma in 2 studies

Palmitic Acid: A common saturated fatty acid found in fats and waxes including olive oil, palm oil, and body lipids.
hexadecanoic acid : A straight-chain, sixteen-carbon, saturated long-chain fatty acid.

Asthma: A form of bronchial disorder with three distinct components: airway hyper-responsiveness (RESPIRATORY HYPERSENSITIVITY), airway INFLAMMATION, and intermittent AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION. It is characterized by spasmodic contraction of airway smooth muscle, WHEEZING, and dyspnea (DYSPNEA, PAROXYSMAL).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The energy derived from lipids, saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and myristic and palmitic acids was independently associated with current asthma (Odds Ratio (OR) third tertile 2."3.76Fat intake and asthma in Spanish schoolchildren. ( Jiménez, AI; López-Sobaler, AM; Ortega, RM; Perea, JM; Rodríguez-Rodríguez, E; Rodríguez-Rodríguez, P, 2010)
" Elevated arachidonic acid levels in children with asthma may be because of a disturbed balance in the metabolism of n-6 PUFA or may be secondary to inflammation in these patients."3.73Fatty acids in serum cholesteryl esters in relation to asthma and lung function in children. ( Bolte, G; Cullen, P; Fobker, M; Keil, U; Kompauer, I; Mutius, E; Weiland, SK, 2006)
