Reduced levels of omega-3 in mice had deleterious consequences on synaptic functions and emotional behaviors, French researchers say. Researchers at the Institut national de la sante et de la recherche medicale and the French National Institure for Agriculatural Research say the human dietary ratio between omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid omega-3 increased continuously over the course of the 20th century. Olivier Manzoni, head of research at INSERM in Bordeaux and the Institut de Neurobiologie de la Mediterranee in Marseille, and Sophie Laye, head of research at INRA in Bordeaux, and co-workers studied mice fed a lifelong diet imbalanced in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.
