  ABSTRACT: Eicosanoids are biologically active derivatives of polyunsaturated fatty acids with broad relevance to health and disease. We report a genome-wide association study in 8406 participants of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study, identifying 41 loci associated with 92 eicosanoids and related metabolites. These findings highlight loci required for eicosanoid biosynthesis, including FADS1-3, ELOVL2, and numerous CYP450 loci. In addition, significant associations implicate a range of non-oxidative lipid metabolic processes in eicosanoid regulation, including at PKD2L1/SCD and several loci involved in fatty acyl-CoA metabolism. Further, our findings highlight select clearance mechanisms, for example, through the hepatic transporter encoded by SLCO1B1. Finally, we identify eicos
