Abstract
A method of treating a subject and preventing in a subject age-dependent basal forebrain cholinergic dysfunction related neurodegenerative disorders, comprising: administering a lipid composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of highly enriched 1-acyl chains/2-docosahexaenoic acid containing molecular species of highly pure phospholipids to promote survival of aged basal forebrain cholinergic neurons, the phospholipids selected from the group consisting of phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidyl-monomethylethanolamine. A composition for treating a subject and preventing in a subject age-dependent basal forebrain cholinergic dysfunction related neurodegenerative disorders, the composition comprising: a lipid composition comprising: a therapeutically effective amount of highly enriched 1-acyl chains/2-docosahexaenoic acid containing molecular species of highly pure phospholipids to promote survival of aged basal forebrain cholinergic neurons, the phospholipids selected from the group consisting of phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidyl-monomethylethanolamine. A process for preparing a lipid composition comprising a therap…
