Eicosapentaenoic Acid and Docosahexaenoic Acid in Endurance Performance and Cardiovascular Function [PDF]
운동과학, 2019 PURPOSE Fish oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5 n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6 n-3). Consumption of EPA and DHA has been expected to improve fatigue recovery, endurance performance, antioxidant production,

Chronic Arachidonic Acid Administration Decreases Docosahexaenoic Acid- and Eicosapentaenoic Acid-Derived Metabolites in Kidneys of Aged Rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Arachidonic acid (ARA) metabolites produced by cyclo-oxygenase and lipoxygenase are important mediators maintaining physiological renal function. However, the effects of exogenous ARA on kidney function in vivo remain unknown.

Effects of Eicosapentaenoic Acid on Arterial Calcification [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Arterial calcification is a hallmark of advanced atherosclerosis and predicts cardiovascular events. However, there is no clinically accepted therapy that prevents progression of arterial calcification. HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, statins, lower low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and reduce cardiovascular events, but coronary artery calcification is

Influence of eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5, n-3) on secretion of lipoproteins in CaCo-2 cells.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1992 CaCo-2 cells, grown on filter membranes, were used to study the effects of fatty acids on cellular metabolism of triacylglycerol and phospholipids. The rate of triacylglycerol secretion was enhanced more than 2-fold, from 1 to 2 weeks after reaching ...

Evaluation of Plasma AA/DHA+EPA Ratio in Obese Romanian Children
Romanian Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2021 The aim of the study was to evaluate the plasma profile of arachidonic acid (AA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), as well to analyze the relationship of Omega 6/Omega 3 ratio with anthropo-metric parameters and insulin ...

Effect of Vascepa (icosapent ethyl) on progression of coronary atherosclerosis in patients with elevated triglycerides (200-499 mg/dL) on statin therapy: Rationale and design of the EVAPORATE study. [PDF]
Despite reducing progression and promoting regression of coronary atherosclerosis, statin therapy does not fully address residual cardiovascular (CV) risk.
