Differently expressed genes associated with plasma fatty acid levels and SFA to PUA ratio. Number of differentially expressed genes associated with n-3 level (8 gene transcripts), n-6 level (15 gene transcripts), and SFA to PUFA ratio (25 gene transcripts). Seven differentially expressed genes were associated with both n-6 level and SFA to PUFA ratio, and one differently expressed gene was associated with both n-3 level and SFA to PUFA ratio. Differences in Log2 gene expression between subjects in the highest and lowest tertiles were compared by independent samples t test. P values < 0.05 were considered significant
