Difference between Fatty acid synthesis and Prostaglandin

Fatty acid synthesis vs. Prostaglandin

Fatty acid synthesis is the creation of fatty acids from acetyl-CoA and NADPH through the action of enzymes called fatty acid synthases. The prostaglandins (PG) are a group of physiologically active lipid compounds having diverse hormone-like effects in animals.

Similarities between Fatty acid synthesis and Prostaglandin

Fatty acid synthesis and Prostaglandin have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Arachidonic acid, Enzyme, Essential fatty acid, Fatty acid, Paracrine signalling.

Arachidonic acid

Essential fatty acid

Essential fatty acids, or EFAs, are fatty acids that humans and other animals must ingest because the body requires them for good health but cannot synthesize them.
