Turnover of brain DHA in mice is accurately determined by tracer-free natural abundance carbon isotope ratio analysis
The brain is highly enriched in the long-chain omega-3 (n-3) PUFA DHA. Due to the limited capacity for local DHA synthesis in the brain, it relies on a continual supply from the circulation to replenish metabolized DHA. Previous studies investigating brain DHA turnover and metabolism have relied on...
