Omega-3 fatty acids and inflammation

Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2004
Dietary omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids have a variety of anti-inflammatory and immune-modulating effects that may be of relevance to atherosclerosis and its clinical manifestations of myocardial infarction, sudden death, and stroke. The n-3 fatty acids that appear to be most potent in this respect are the long-chain polyunsaturates derived from marine oils,

Omega-3 fatty acids and athletics

Current Sports Medicine Reports, 2007
Human beings evolved consuming a diet that contained about equal amounts of y-6 and y-3 essential fatty acids. Today, in Western diets, the ratio of y-6 to y-3 fatty acids ranges from approximately 10:1 to 20:1 instead of the traditional range of 1:1 to 2:1. Studies indicate that a high intake of y-6 fatty acids shifts the physiologic state to one that

Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Arrhythmias

Circulation
The pro- and antiarrhythmic effects of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) have been extensively studied in preclinical and human trials. Despite early evidence of an antiarrhythmic role of n-3 PUFA in the prevention of sudden cardiac death and postoperative and persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), subsequent well-designed randomized trials

Omega-3 fatty acids and the peroxisome

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 1996
The interactions between the omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids and peroxisomal function have been reviewed, in order to update and integrate knowledge in this area. Following a brief retrospective of the major clinical involvements of these fatty acids, the participation of the peroxisome in their metabolism has been appraised-the peroxisome being shown ...

Immunomodulation by omega-3 fatty acids

Prostaglandins, Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, 2007
The immune system, including its inflammatory components, is fundamental to host defense against pathogenic invaders. It is a complex system involving interactions amongst many different cell types dispersed throughout the body. Central to its actions are phagocytosis, processing of antigens derived from intracellular and extracellular pathogens ...

Hypertriglyceridemia and Omega-3 Fatty Acids

1988
Recent studies by Bang and Dyerberg (1) have stimulated interest in the metabolism of omega-3 fatty acids and have suggested a link between the ingestion of these fatty acids in a diet and the low death rate from athersclerotic disease in Eskimos.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Skin

2010
Using nutrients such as omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) for the promotion of skin health and treatment of skin disorders is a novel concept. These bioactive fatty acids have a high safety profile and could potentially be used as an adjuvant or alternative to traditional therapy.

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2011
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are naturally occurring omega (ω)-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), which are found in highest quantities in oily fish such as sardines and mackerel. Epidemiological studies of the association between fish intake, ω-3 PUFA intake or blood ω-3 PUFA levels and colorectal cancer ...

Omega-3 Fatty Acids: A Novel Fat Burner

Strength and Conditioning Journal, 2004
S tudies have repeatedly shown that overall energy balance is the major determinant in weight management (3, 12). This is consistent with the first law of thermodynamics as applied to human energy balance: If you expend more calories than you consume, you will lose weight.
