Association of fatty acid desaturase genes with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

Biological psychiatry - 15 Nov 2006

Brookes Keeley J, Chen Wai, Xu Xiaohui, Taylor Eric, Asherson Philip

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fatty acids, in particular omega-3 fatty acids, have been found to affect behavior and cognition both directly and indirectly. Evidence to suggest a link with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) derives from three key areas: 1) animal dietary restriction studies observed i...
