Biochemical and functional effects of prenatal and postnatal omega 3 fatty acid deficiency on retina and brain in rhesus monkeys

TL;DR: It is suggested that dietary omega 3 fatty acids are retina and brain, and abnormally low levels of 22:6 omega 3 may produce alterations in the biophysical properties of photoreceptor and neural membranes that may underlie these functional impairments.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Essentiality of N-3 Fatty Acids for the Development and Function of the Retina and Brain

TL;DR: Information is provided on how the properties of DHA-rich Membranes, including their biophysical properties, affect their ability to secrete non-volatile substances such as polyene and polymethine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dietary effects on brain fatty acid composition: the reversibility of n-3 fatty acid deficiency and turnover of docosahexaenoic acid in the brain, erythrocytes, and plasma of rhesus monkeys.

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of serial biopsy samples of the cerebral cortex indicated that the changes of brain fatty acid composition began as early as 1 week after fish oil feeding and stabilized at 12 weeks.
