Biological complexity is under the 'strange attraction' of non-esterified fatty acids.

摘要: Abstract It is now clear from numerous data that non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) can act without any metabolic modification as second messengers or modulators of the complex signalling network which characteristic mammals. This respond differently to adapt organism various endogenous and exogenous environmental situations. NEFAs have a wide range molecular structures, thus exert different specific modulatory actions on this network, such amplification, inhibition signal redirection. We chosen term ‘strange attractions’ describe these modulations by analogy with concept introduced in deterministic chaos theory. modulate functions mammals at all levels organization (molecular, cellular, tissue, organ, etc).
