Barry Prasant's work and you knew that there needed to be more research, but you wanted it to be very clinically focused
This exceptional capability is mainly attributable to the favorable gradient for fatty acids to cross the blood-brain barrier, either passively or via fatty acid binding proteins (FATPs), since once in the brain, unesterified fatty acids are converted to CoA thioesters by the long-chain-fatty-acid-CoA synthase (ACSL) family of proteins, therefore maintaining a continuous concentration gradient (see (Bazinet and Lay, Table 3 Fatty acid composition of total lipids in the hippocampus of 6 months old WT and APP/PS1 mice, and fed for 3 months with either Low-DHA or High-DHA diets
