LEP and type 2 diabetes mellitus: In addition, the presence of odd-chain fatty acids, such as pentadecanoic acid (15:0) and heptadecanoic acid (17:0) in the bioactive PC and PE fractions of the FGE-salmon-PLs extract seems to add to the cardioprotective properties to this extract, since the presence of such diet-derived odd-chain fatty acids in human plasma PL has been associated with a decreased risk for CVD and type II diabetes and with favourable effects against the atherogenic leptin and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) levels [51,52,53,54].
