DHA results from ALA, while ARA from LA by desaturation and elongation of the carbon chain [20] (Figure 1). Humans can synthesize saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), but they are not able to synthesize ALA and LA due to the deficiency of the conversion enzyme ω-3-desaturase [21]. LA and ALA request the same conversion enzymes, consequently there is competitive inhibition between the two substrates. Delta-6-desaturase promotes the conversion of omega-3 fatty acids into omega-6 fatty acids. However, an increased LA intake may shift the balance towards the conversion of omega-6 PUFA thus inhibiting the conversion of ALA to DHA [22].
Endogenous synthesis of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and their involvement in inflammation. 15-LOX: 15-Lipoxygenase, 5-LOX: 5-Lipoxygenase, 12/15-LOX: 12/15 Lipoxygenase, CYP-450: Cytochrome P450.
Human metabolic studies show a limited conversion of ALA to DHA, typically below 5% in adult males [34,35,36,37]. Women have a greater efficiency of conversion than men [38] and this may be important for fetal supply during pregnancy. Women demonstrated lower omega-3 fatty acid intake than men considering the same age categories [39]. Moreover, delta-6 desaturase activity decreases with age and undergoes lesser conversion, mainly in women. Therefore, to get the sufficient intake of EPA and DHA, especially in aging dietary supplements containing these preformed omega-3 are necessary. Indeed, the shift in modern diets towards reduced omega-3 PUFA intake increases omega-6 PUFA consumption and, if combined with less physical activity, has a detrimental impact on development and aging, especially with regard to cognitive function [14].
Current guidelines suggest an intake of EPA and DHA within the range of 250 to 500 mg [40]. As indicated by modern daily dietary, the consumption of omega-3 PUFAs is lower than necessary. DHA intakes, indeed, are closer to 100 mg per day, the optimal dietary omega-6 to omega-3 PUFA ratio has been determined in 2:1 or lesser, whereas the Western diet is usually established in the range of 10:1 to 25:1 [14].
However, a case-control study, which examined the relationship between dietary intake of individual fatty acids and the risk of PD in Japan, including 249 cases within six years of onset of PD, demonstrated that, if the higher consumption of ARA and cholesterol could be related to an increased risk of PD, the intake of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids was not [51].
A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial, conducted in 60 patients with PD, receiving either 1000 mg omega-3 fatty acids from flaxseed oil plus 400 IU vitamin E supplements or placebo for three months, showed that the dietetic supplementation in people with PD improved UPDRS, compared with the placebo [53].
In a second paper published in 2008, Freund-Levi et al. [65], using the same sample from 2006, showed that supplementation with omega-3 in patients with mild to moderate AD did not result in marked effects on neuropsychiatric symptoms except from possible positive effects on depression (assessed by MADRS) in non-APOEε4 carriers and agitation symptoms (assessed by Neuropsychiatric Inventory, NPI) in APOEε4 carriers. The omega-3 mechanism of action in the brain in relation to behavior is not fully elucidated. It has been shown in in vitro studies that a combination of EPA and DHA inhibits protein kinase C (PKC) activity [65]. Since mood stabilizers are known to inhibit PKC activity as well, PKC inhibition may represent a common mode of action for omega-3 in bipolar disorders. Other possible mechanisms could be that omega-3 fatty acids affect neurotransmitter levels and membrane fluidity also by decreasing production of pro-inflammatory eicosanoids that might be elevated in depression [65].
Considering that ADAS-cog could be considerably modified in moderate AD and that Souvenaid had not been evaluated in patients with moderate AD already taking AD medications, a novel S-Connect study was planned. This double-blind, parallel, randomized, controlled clinical study, investigated the efficacy and tolerability of Souvenaid in 527 persons with mild to moderate AD, consuming constant doses of Souvenaid [71]. Cognitive performance evaluated by ADAS-cog, showed a decline over time in either placebo or active groups, indicating no significant difference between active groups themselves. Souvenaid drinking did not decelerate cognitive decline in patients treated for mild to moderate AD. Faxen-Irving et al., as a part of a previously published study on a DHA rich supplementation to subjects with AD [64], explored the effects of transthyretin on plasma and CSF. Since plasma transthyretin correlated with MMSE and inversely with ADAS-Cog, these authors suggest a potential mechanism for probable positive effects of omega-3 on cognition.
A study from Shinto et al. [73] investigated 39 subjects with probable AD in a randomized placebo-controlled pilot with three arms, one group receiving only omega-3 fatty acids (DHA 675 mg/die and EPA 975 mg/die), the second with the addition of alpha lipoic acid (600 mg/die), and the placebo group receiving soy oil. The intervention lasted 12 months and medication for AD was allowed. No differences were found in ADAS-cog and ADL between placebo and omega-3 fatty acids or between placebo and omega-3 fatty acids + alpha lipoic acid. In MMSE, the mean variation between the placebo group and the intervention group with only omega-3 fatty acids was not significant, whereas the difference between placebo and omega-3 fatty acids + alpha lipoic acid was significant. The mean IADL variation (Table 3) was significant between the placebo group and the omega-3 fatty acid group and between the placebo and the omega-3 fatty acids + alpha lipoic acid group.
Data obtained in the OmegAD study [65,80] were collected to examine the relationship of plasma omega-3 levels with cognitive scores (using ADAS-cog and the MMSE) [76]. The daily supplementation stabilizes the cognitive performance of AD subjects assessed by ADAS-cog and MMSE scores.
Also from the OmegAD study, a decrease was observed in resolvin D1 (RvD1) and lipoxin A4 (LXA4) production from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of AD patients who did not receive omega-3 supplementation but not in the cells of AD subjects under omega-3 intake [77].
The inconsistency between observational and randomized studies is not unusual in clinical research, particularly when considering treatment with dietary supplements or integrators. A number of reasons may account for this finding. Firstly, in controlled trials, dietary supplementation is usually carried out over a relatively limited time span, compared with the life-long exposure of real-life observational studies. The different time course of the two approaches could play a relevant role. Observational studies may disclose the preventive effects of disease initiation, whereas in randomized trials involving patients already carrying a disease, the outcome more likely consists of a slowing of disease progression, or a reduction in disease-related complications. Distinct protective mechanisms are likely to take place. Furthermore, the variations in dietary patterns might reflect the adoption of a healthier lifestyle, in adjunct to the contribution provided by the single-nutrient supplementation. This was postulated, for instance, when investigating the protective effects of the Mediterranean diet on cognitive performances. In the present context, the intake of higher amounts of foods containing omega-3 fatty acids might be associated with a reduced intake of other nutrients, such as meat.
Finally, the possibility of different individual responses to dietary intervention must be considered. As mentioned in this review, the protective effects exerted by omega-3 fatty acids are likely to be modulated by patient-related factors, some of which may have a significant genetic component and may, therefore, be unmodifiable, and unpredictable with routine clinical and biochemical evaluation.

The input for Clustal Omega is limited to a maximum of 4000 sequences or to a 4MB file (whichever is smaller). If you need to align higher than this number of sequences/a larger file we recommended you download Clustal Omega and run it locally. When the input file or the number of sequences is large, Clustal Omega can run for days and in some cases may not finish at all - we recommend use of the email results option for long running jobs. To use Clustal Omega in a batch/scripted fashion please see our web services page: Top
Clustal Omega produces several outputs, depending on the options you selected when submitting the job. By default the main output is the alignment file. A simple phylogenetic tree (via neighbour joining) can be found in the Phylogenetic Tree tab. A pairwise identity scores matrix and other outputs can be viewed/downloaded in the Results Summary tab. See example output formats.Top
The quickest way to download the alignment is to click the 'Download Alignment File' button in the alignments tab of the results. You can view all the files that are produced on the 'Results Summary' tab, which includes the tool output and any guide tree files as well as the alignment file. Colours are not saved as part of the alignment. Top
Clustal Omega uses a different method to calculate the guide tree compared to ClustalW, so we do not output the rough all-against-all pairwise alignment scores used to guide the alignment (as they don't exist). However we do calculate a pairwise identity matrix from the results, which can be downloaded from the Results Summary tab. Top
A growing body of evidence has indicated that omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3 PUFAs) have been effective in improving depression1,2. Supplementation with the two main types of omega-3 PUFAs, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)3, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)4,5, has also been found to be effective in reducing symptoms of depression. However, EPA and DHA may play different roles in depression because of their involvement in anti-inflammatory activity and their maintenance of membrane integrity and fluidity, respectively6. The different therapeutic effects of EPA and DHA on depression need to be further studied. 153554b96e
