Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, and blinding retinal degenerations: coping with neuroinflammation and sustaining cell survival
The significance of the selective enrichment in omega-3 essential fatty acids in the nervous system has remained, until recently, incompletely understood. While studying mechanisms of cell survival in neurodegenerations, a new docosanoid synthesized from docosahexaenoic acid [DHA] by 15-lipoxygenase...
