Plasmalogens alleviate age-related cognitive decline in mice
Scientists have learned that plasmalogens, obscure but important lipids, serve as a mediator of neurogenesis and synaptic health, and can reverse age-related cognitive decline in mice[1]. Plasmalogens and membranes Plasmalogens are a subtype of phospholipids, the molecules that cellular membranes are mostly made of. Plasmalogens are especially abundant in the brain, heart, and immune cells, …
