Palmitate (C16–0) turnover in hypothalamus and hippocampus of XXY, XY, and AD XY mice. Mice received 2H2O tracer for 5 days, after which hypothalamus and hippocampus regions were collected for GC-MS MIDA. In brain regions important for sexual preference, hypothalamus (A), and hippocampus (B), rates of FNS palmitate were significantly higher in XXY and AD mice than in controls. Each value represents a mean of 3 replicate experiments in 4 mice ± SE. Nos. in brackets indicate nos. of mice in experimental setting. *P < 0.05.
