Abstract:
:Accumulating evidence suggests that abnormal fatty acid composition is related to the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, there is no consistency in the fatty acid profile and metabolism associated with AD pathogenesis. This study aims to define the characteristics of fatty acid composition and metabolism in AD. Using 6-month-old APP/PS1 transgenic mice with wild-type mice as a control, we examined the serum lipids, brain fatty acid composition, and the expression levels of various genes involved in liver fatty acid β-oxidation. The results of our study demonstrate that APP/PS1 mice present decreased serum free fatty acids, altered brain fatty acid profiles, and minimal change in liver fatty acid β-oxidation. Our results suggest that abnormal fatty acid compositions and contents may play potential roles in AD progression. This study provides further evidence for the metabolic basis of AD pathogenesis.
