摘要: Object Traumatic brain injury remains the most common cause of death in persons under 45 years age Western world. Recent evidence from animal studies suggests that supplementation with omega-3 fatty acid (O3FA) (particularly eicosapentaenoic [EPA] and docosahexaenoic [DHA]) improves functional outcomes following focal neural injury. The purpose this study is to determine benefits O3FA diffuse axonal rats. Methods Forty adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were used. Three groups 10 subjected an impact acceleration remaining group underwent a sham-injury procedure (surgery, but no injury). Two supplemented or 40 mg/kg/day O3FA; third injured served as unsupplemented control group. sham-injured likewise received supplementation. Serum levels determined isolated plasma phospholipids prior an...
