Fish oil (FO) targets lipid microdomain organization to suppress T-cell and macrophage
function; however, little is known about this relationship with B cells, especially at the animal
level. We previously established that a high FO dose diminished mouse B-cell lipid raft
microdomain clustering induced by cross-linking GM1. To establish relevance, here we
tested a FO dose modeling human intake on B-cell raft organization relative to a control.
