They are also commonly termed n-6 Docosapentaenoic Acid and n-3 DPA, respectively; these designations describes the position of the double bond being 6 or 3 carbons closest to the (omega) carbon at the methyl end of the molecule and is based on the biologically important difference that n-6 and n-3 PUFA are separate PUFA classes, i.e. the omega-6 fatty acids and omega-3 fatty acids, respectively. Mammals, including humans, can not interconvert these two classes and therefore must obtain dietary essential PUFA fatty acids from both classes in order to maintain normal health (see essential fatty acids).
Docosapentaenoic Acid is an n-3 fatty acid that is structurally similar to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) with the same number of double bonds, but two more carbon chain units.

Docosapentaenoic Acid is present in abundance in the blubber of pinnipeds, seals , walruses , and sea lions.

Docosapentaenoic Acid is an omega-3 fatty acid that is known chemically as all-cis-4,7,10,13,16-docosapentaenoic acid.
Docosapentaenoic Acid also has an omega-6 isomer, although this form is rare in mammals except for the testes.
The structure of Docosapentaenoic Acid is similar to that of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), except that DPA has two more carbon units in its chain.

The most abundant dietary source of Docosapentaenoic Acid is oil from the bearded seal, which contains 5.6 grams of DPA per 100-gram serving, and some researchers feel that it may be a contributing factor to the overall good cardiovascular health of the Greenland Intuits.
Fatty fish such as menhaden and salmon also have high levels of Docosapentaenoic Acid.

Raw salmon oil contains 393 milligrams of Docosapentaenoic Acid per 100-gram serving.
Atlantic mackerel and Florida pompano (which contains even more Docosapentaenoic Acid than EPA) deliver over 200 mg of DPA per 100 gram portion.
Small-fin tuna is also another good source of Docosapentaenoic Acid.

Laboratory studies show that Docosapentaenoic Acid and EPA are readily converted into each other in the liver, so DPA serves as a precursor for EPA.
However, neither of these fatty acids appears to be metabolized into docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which is another nutritionally important omega-3 fatty acid.

Docosapentaenoic Acid is also present in many other tissues, especially the heart, kidneys and skeletal muscle.
Docosapentaenoic Acid serves many functions in the human body that primarily deal with blood health and cell proliferation.

Docosapentaenoic Acid, also known as DPA, is a fatty acid derived from fish oils that potently inhibits platelet aggregation.
Docosapentaenoic Acid has been reported to block the cyclooxygenase pathway and stimulate the lipoxygenase pathway, which results in effective platelet aggregation inhibition.
