Figure 1: Localization of Mfsd2a in the blood–brain barrier and neuronal deficits in Mfsd2a-knockout mice. Figure 2: Brains of Mfsd2a-knockout mice are DHA-deficient. Figure 4: Uptake of radiolabelled ...
Certain special fats found in blood are essential for human brain growth and function, new research suggests. New published studies show that mutations in the protein Mfsd2a causes impaired brain ...
Already extolled for their health benefits as a food compound, omega-3 fatty acids now appear to also play a critical role in preserving the integrity of the blood-brain barrier, which protects the ...

There's good fat, and then there's really good fat. Two separate studies have pointed to the key role played by the fat LPC in maintaining healthy brain functioning. The studies each showed that if ...
Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School (Duke-NUS) have derived a structural model of a transporter at the blood-brain barrier called Mfsd2a (1). This is the first molecular model of this critical ...
Neurological drugs that have difficulty crossing the blood-brain barrier might fit into the hold of a major facilitator superfamily domain containing 2A (MFSD2A)—a sort of molecular ferry. Ordinarily, ...
Like a bouncer at an exclusive nightclub, the blood-brain barrier allows only select molecules to pass from the bloodstream into the fluid that bathes the brain. Vital nutrients get in; toxins and ...
