Insulin resistance is known to be associated with higher levels of circulating free fatty acids. Are higher levels of circulating free fatty acids known to be associated with increased levels of ffa or TGs in the milieu of central nervous system, particularly in neurons?
Thanks
Dear Kumar,
I have found 3 titles:
1) Pilitsis JG et al. Quantification of free fatty acids in human cerebrospinal fluid. Neurochem Res 2001; 26(12): 1265-70.
2) Pilitsis JG et al. Measurement of free fatty acids in cerecbrospinal fluid from patients with hemorragic and ischemic stroke. Brain Research 2003; 985:198-201.
3) Pilitsis JG et al. Free fatty acids in cerebrospinal fluids from patients with traumatic brain injury. Neuroscience Letters 2003; 349(2): 136-138.
Best rergards,

Brain is very complex organ....it only takes up what it needed. On the top neurons in brain synthesis its own fat. There are n numbers of study you will find on this topic.
