Effects of Docosahexaenoic Acid on Neurotransmission
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is the major polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) in the brain and a structural component of neuronal membranes. Changes in DHA content of neuronal membranes lead to functional changes in the activity of receptors and other proteins which might be associated with synaptic function. Accumulating evidence suggests the beneficial effects of dietary DHA supplementation on ne...
متن کاملP-27: The Effects of Combined Docosahexaenoic Acid and Vitamin E Supplementation onSpermatogram in Asthenozoospermic Men
Background: The motility patterns of spermatozoa correlate with the rate of natural pregnancy. It is not clear which compounds in spermatozoa or seminal plasma may be involved in the regulation of sperm motility. Considering the decrease of omega-3 fatty acids in spermatozoa of asthenozoospermic men, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of combined docosahexaenoic acid (D...
متن کاملDose-dependent effects of docosahexaenoic acid-rich fish oil on erythrocyte docosahexaenoic acid and blood lipid levels.
Consumption of long-chain n-3 PUFA, particularly DHA, has been shown to improve cardiovascular risk factors but the intake required to achieve benefits is unclear. We sought to determine the relationship between DHA intake, increases in erythrocyte DHA content and changes in blood lipids. A total of sixty-seven subjects (thirty-six male, thirty-one female, mean age 53 years) with fasting serum ...
متن کاملDocosahexaenoic Acid (DHA)
Handling & Preparation Instructions This purified fatty acid is liquid at room temperature (oil) and not soluble in water. The product is supplied sterile. It can be solubilized in undiluted serum, ethanol or DMSO. The solubility of Docosahexaenoic acid in ethanol is at least 100 mg/ml. Docosahexaenoic acid has a solubility of 1 mg/ml in a solution of 0.15 M Tris-HCL (pH 8.5). We strongly recom...
متن کاملDocosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) Monograph
Introduction Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an omega-3 fatty acid that falls into the larger category of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Although many chronic conditions are associated with excessive intake of dietary saturated and trans fatty acids (including obesity, insulin resistance, coronary heart disease, and some forms of cancer), research shows omega-3 fatty acids, including DHA, a...
