Docosahexaenoic acid and lactation

Prostaglandins, Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, 2009
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an important component of membrane phospholipids in the retina and brain and accumulates rapidly in these tissues during early infancy. DHA is present in human milk, but the amount varies considerably and is largely dependent on maternal diet.

Vesicles from docosahexaenoic acid

Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2007
In dilute aqueous solution and at room temperature, cis-4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) self-assembles into vesicles (self-closed bilayers), if the molar ratio of the neutral form of DHA to anionic DHA is kept between 1:1 and 1:3 (corresponding to a bulk pH between 8.5 and 9.2 for a system with 10 mM DHA).

Retroconversion of docosahexaenoic acid in the rat

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1969
Abstract 1. 1. Uniformly 14 C-labeled 4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoic acid was fed to normal rats and to rats at two stages of essential fatty acid deficiency. All groups incorporated about 17% of 14 C fed into liver lipids. Normal rats retroconverted the hexaenoic acid to 7,10,13,16,19-docosapentaenoic and 5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaenoic acids ...

The docosahexaenoic acid of marine organisms

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 1971
AbstractPreparative gas chromatography has been used for the purification of the highly unsaturated C22 acid present in cod liver. Confirmation that this acid is Δ4,7,10,13,16,19 docosahexaenoic acid has been obtained by purely physicochemical means using NMR and mass spectrometry.

Conservation of Docosahexaenoic Acid in the Retina

1992
Over the last several years, evidence has accumulated that n-3 fatty acids, particularly 22:6n-3, are essential for the development of the structure and function of the visual system. The importance of 22:6n-3 is reflected in the tenacious manner in which the retina conserves this fatty acid during n-3 deficiency.

Immunomodulation of microglia by docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2012
The omega-3 fatty acids (ω-3 FAs) docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid are dietary components which have been ascribed many different health benefits. Inflammation is present in, and contributes to, pathological conditions in the central nervous system (CNS).
