Shrimp Oil alleviates white matter lesions and improves cognitive deficits by attenuating neuroinflammation in chronic cerebral hypoperfusion rat model

Vascular dementia (VaD), resulting from chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH), is the second among the age-related problems in an aging population worldwide. Neuroinflammation is increasing linked to the pathological process of VaD. Shrimp oil is a processing shrimp by-product containing abundance of astaxanthin and lipids including n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs).
