Autooxidation of docosahexaenoic acid: analysis of ten isomers of hydroxydocosahexaenoate.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1984 Docosahexaenoic acid, an n-3 essential fatty acid, was recently shown to be enzymically converted by platelets, basophils, and liver microsomes into metabolites containing conjugated dienes with allylic hydroxyl groups. To help identify these metabolites,

Docosahexaenoic Acid and the Aging Brain [PDF]
The Journal of Nutrition, 2008 The dietary essential PUFA docosahexaenoic acid [DHA; 22:6(n-3)] is a critical contributor to cell structure and function in the nervous system, and deficits in DHA abundance are associated with cognitive decline during aging and in neurodegenerative disease.

Value of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids for infants’ health and development
Репродуктивная эндокринология, 2019 The level of intake of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in pregnant, newborns and young children affects the quality of growth, state of the cardiovascular system, neurological and immune functions in childhood and later life. Child receives

Amyloid-beta peptide, oxidative stress and inflammation in Alzheimer’s disease: Potential neuroprotective effects of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids [PDF]
, 2010 Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia in the elderly and is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterised by a decline in cognitive function and also profound alterations in mood and behaviour. The pathology of the disease is

Docosahexaenoic acid and the preterm infant [PDF]
Maternal Health, Neonatology and Perinatology, 2017 Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a long chain poly-unsaturated fatty acid (LCPUFA) that has a role in the cognitive and visual development, as well as in the immune function of newborns. Premature infants are typically deficient in DHA for several reasons, to include fetal accretion of DHA that typically occurs during the third trimester.

Effects of Docosahexaenoic Acid on Neurotransmission
Biomolecules and Therapeutics, 2012 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.
