A Diet Enriched in Docosahexanoic Acid Exacerbates Brain Parenchymal Extravasation of Apo B Lipoproteins Induced by Chronic Ingestion of Saturated Fats

Figure 1

Three-D immunofluorescent staining of cerebral extravasation of apo B. Parenchymal leakage of apo B lipoproteins (red) is observed surrounding the cerebral microvessels. Nuclei are shown in blue. The 3D images are from mice maintained on saturated-fat diet for 5 months (SFA 5 m) and SFA fed mice randomised to LF (+LF 2 m) and DHA (+DHA 2 m) diet for further 2 months. Scale: 1 unit = 42.7 μm.
