Total RBC plasmalogen levels were found to be lower in humans than in chimpanzees, or gorillas, but higher than in orangutans. Gene expression data from all these species caused the authors …

As we age, particularly after the age of 50, or in the presence of inflammation, there is a notable decrease in plasmalogen levels. This decline is even more pronounced in individuals suffering …

Jul 25, 2025 · The integrity of myelin is closely tied to plasmalogen presence. Plasmalogens also have implications for cardiovascular health. Research indicates that lower levels of these lipids …

May 20, 2025 · A plasmalogen looks almost like any other membrane fat, but it has a built-in “spring” mid-tail that does three things at once. First, it bends under pressure, so fast-moving …

In this review, we will examine the strategies for plasmalogen modulation and recent progress toward therapeutic applications with a focus on neurodegenerative and cardiometabolic disease.

Nov 4, 2024 · Evidence suggests that decreased serum plasmalogen levels increase the risk for Alzheimer’s. Low plasmalogen levels have also been attributed to other mental health …

One study, Goodenowe and Senanayake (2019), found that plasmalogen levels and ApoE4 are independently associated with the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, but it is not known whether …

Apr 1, 2019 · Defects in plasmalogen synthesis or low plasmalogen levels have been associated with a range of genetic neurological and metabolic diseases. However, whether plasmalogens …

This review synthesizes current findings on plasmalogen biosynthesis, function, and clinical implications, advocating for deeper exploration in large-scale human trials to clarify optimal …

Plasmalogen's Integral Role: Plasmalogens are integral components of cell membranes, particularly in the brain, heart, and other vital organs. They are strategically positioned within …
