Modification of dopamine neurotransmission in the nucleus accumbens of rats deficient in n–3 polyunsaturated fatty acids
We studied the effects of a diet chronically deficient in α-linolenic acid, the precursor of long-chain n–3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, on dopaminergic neurotransmission in the shell region of the nucleus accumbens of rats. In vivo microdialysis experiments showed increased basal levels of dopamine...
