Autistic Children Exhibit Decreased Levels of Essential Fatty Acids in Red Blood Cells

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2015
Omega-6 (n-6) and omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are essential nutrients for brain development and function. However, whether or not the levels of these fatty acids are altered in individuals with autism remains debatable. In this study,

Short chain fatty acids in human gut and metabolic health.

Beneficial Microbes, 2020
Evidence is accumulating that short chain fatty acids (SCFA) play an important role in the maintenance of gut and metabolic health. The SCFA acetate, propionate and butyrate are produced from the microbial fermentation of indigestible carbohydrates and ...

Developmental changes in rat brain membrane lipids and fatty acids: the preferential prenatal accumulation of docosahexaenoic acid

Journal of Lipid Research, 1999
Information on the prenatal accumulation of rat brain membrane lipids is scarce. In this study we investigated in detail the fatty acid (FA) composition of the rat brain, on each day from embryonic day 12 (E12) up to birth, and on 8 time points during ...

The Impact of the Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) in Human Health

, 2015
Linoleic (LA) and α-linolenic acids (ALA) are considered essential fatty acids (EFA) because they are not produced by the human body. This way, EFAs sources must come from the diet. The primary dietary source of n-3 fatty acids is ALA, found in seeds and
