Gamma linolenic acid is mainly distributed in the seed oils of higher plants,such as onagraceae,borage and saxifrage,and also in fungi oils. Gamma linolenic acid can fall blood pressure and hematic fat,and be of the capability of anti–inflammatory,anti–tumor,anti–hiv and other important physiological functions. This paper summarizes the blood pressure–lowering effect of gamma linolenic acid,and mainly explores the mechanisms of this action,including the mechanisms of changing fatty acid composition and promoting protein gene expression,etc.
