One longitudinal cohort study [ 142 ] with a mean follow-up of 14 years, which included 24,032 participants aged 44–74 years, reported a borderline significant interaction by genotype of the FADS SNP rs174546 on the incidence of CVD by PUFA intake levels.

We performed genome-wide allele-specific methylation (ASM) with the FADS1 SNP, rs174537 in 144 human liver samples and identified highly significant ASM with CpG sites between FADS1 and FADS2 in a enhancer signature region [ 150 ], leading to the hypothesis that the associations of rs174537 with LC-PUFA levels may be impacted by the methylation status of that enhancer region.
