Abstract: | Introduction The functions, actions, and regulation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are just now beginning to be unraveled, in large due to modern molecular techniques. In the present work, mice were fed diets rich in either arachidonic acid (AA, n6), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, n3), or the combination (AA+DHA). Both liver and hippocampus tissue were then analyzed through a combined gene expression-, lipid-, and behavioral- profiling strategy in order to annotate the molecular functions and targets of dietary PUFA. |
