Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) include two series of fatty acids: omega-6 and omega-3
series. PUFAs have amphiphatic properties: hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail. Such …

Omega-3 fatty acids are rich in marine animals and plant-based foods like grains and seeds.
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are directly present in …

BACKGROUND: There is conflicting evidence on the benefits of foods rich in vitamin E (α-
tocopherol), n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), and their pharmacological substitutes …

Background Experimental data suggest that long-chain n–3 polyunsaturated fatty acids
found in fish have antiarrhythmic properties, and a randomized trial suggested that dietary …

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) with 22-carbons and 6 double bonds is the extreme example
of an ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). DHA has strong medical implications since its …

Typical omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) are docosahexaenoic acid and
eicosapentaenoic acid in the form of fish oils and α linolenic acid from flaxseed oil …

The aim of this review is to provide basic information on the electrophysiological changes
during acute ischemia and reperfusion from the level of ion channels up to the level of …

The ketogenic diet (KD) is a broadly effective treatment for medically refractory epilepsy.
Despite nearly a century of use, the mechanisms underlying its clinical efficacy remain …

Essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have profound effects on brain development
and function. Abnormalities of PUFA status have been implicated in neuropsychiatric …

Long chain n–3 PUFAs (polyunsaturated fatty acids) are found in fatty fish and in fish oils.
Substantial evidence from epidemiological and case-control studies indicates that …
