FISHing for the Miracle of Eicosapentaenoic Acid

New England Journal of Medicine, 2019
Bhatt et al. report in the Journal the results of the Reduction of Cardiovascular Events with Icosapent Ethyl–Intervention Trial (REDUCE-IT), in which 8179 high-risk patients who had elevated triglyceride levels and had been receiving statin therapy were randomly assigned to receive 2 g of icosapent ethyl twice daily or placebo containing mineral oil.1

Metabolism of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and modification of phospholipids in cultured rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1985
The metabolism of the linolenic acid family (n-3) of fatty acids, e.g., linolenic, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic acids, in cultured smooth muscle cells from rabbit aorta was compared to the metabolism of linoleic and arachidonic acids.

A New E-Series Resolvin: RvE4 Stereochemistry and Function in Efferocytosis of Inflammation-Resolution

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
The resolution of the acute inflammatory response is governed by phagocytes actively clearing apoptotic cells and pathogens. Biosynthesis of the specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) is pivotal in the resolution of inflammation via their roles in ...

Role of EPA in Inflammation: Mechanisms, Effects, and Clinical Relevance

Biomolecules, 2022
Many chronic inflammatory processes are linked with the continuous release of inflammatory mediators and the activation of harmful signal-transduction pathways that are able to facilitate disease progression.

Eicosapentaenoic acid reduces hepatic synthesis and secretion of triacylglycerol by decreasing the activity of acyl-coenzyme A:1,2-diacylglycerol acyltransferase

Journal of Lipid Research, 1988
The mechanism for the reduced hepatic production of triacylglycerol in the presence of eicosapentaenoic acid was explored in short-term experiments using cultured parenchymal cells and microsomes from rat liver.

Regulatory effects of individual n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on LDL transport in the rat

Journal of Lipid Research, 1993
Dietary triglycerides containing predominantly poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are known to reduce plasma total and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol concentrations relative to triglycerides containing predominantly saturated fatty acids ...

Modification of spleen phospholipid fatty acid composition by dietary fish oil and by n-3 fatty acid ethyl esters

Journal of Lipid Research, 1993
We have compared the effects of diets containing purified ethyl esters of either eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, or a mixture of both of these compounds, with diets containing either purified fish oil or beef tallow on spleen phospholipid ...

Catabolism of leukotriene B5 in humans

Journal of Lipid Research, 1990
Human neutrophils, enriched by dietary supplementation with eicosapentaenoic acid, form leukotriene (LT)B5 in addition to LTB4 upon stimulation. LTB5 is one order of magnitude less biologically active than the potent chemokinetic and chemoattractant LTB4.
