Beneficial effects of an algal oil rich in ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on locomotor function and D2 dopamine receptor in haloperidol-induced parkinsonism.

These results confirm the beneficial effects of ω-3 PUFA over locomotory alterations and as neuroprotective and neurorestorative compounds and demonstrates a stimulatory action on D2 receptor presence, as a mechanism by which these fatty acids participate in brain health.
