Acyl-CoA synthetase 6 is required for brain docosahexaenoic acid retention and neuroprotection during aging

Acyl-CoA synthetase 6 is required for brain docosahexaenoic acid retention and neuroprotection during aging

The omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) inversely relates to neurological impairments with aging; however, limited nondietary models manipulating brain DHA have hindered a direct linkage. We discovered that loss of long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 6 in mice (Acsl6–/–) depletes brain membrane...
