Omega-3 Fatty Acids in Early Prevention of Inflammatory Neurodegenerative Disease: A Focus on Alzheimer’s Disease
TL;DR: The role of long chain omega-3 fatty acids in the prevention or delay of cognitive decline in AD in its early stages is supported and the importance of overall quality and composition of the diet to protect against AD and dementia is highlighted.
Altered expression of histone and synaptic plasticity associated genes in the hippocampus of streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice.
TL;DR: This is the first study to demonstrate a gene expression profile implicating epigenetic modifications and alterations of synaptic plasticity associated genes in diabetes mellitus, and will improve the understanding of the neural mechanisms that might underpin diabetes-related cognitive dysfunction.

Dietary supplementation with resveratrol and/or docosahexaenoic acid alters hippocampal gene expression in adult C57Bl/6 mice
TL;DR: The findings demonstrate that hippocampal gene expression is significantly altered by all three dietary supplementation regimes, and indicates that RES and DHA likely exert their beneficial effects through antiinflammatory mechanisms.
