There is evidence that long chain n-3 PUFA (such as from fish oils) provide atheroprotection
through, in part, changes in macrophage function although it has not been fully determined …

Endothelial cells (ECs) play a role in the optimal function of blood vessels. When endothelial
function becomes dysregulated, the risk of developing atherosclerosis increases …

A diet containing a high n− 3/n− 6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) ratio has
cardioprotective properties. PUFAs incorporation into membranes influences the function of …

Background and aims Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are
major components of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) which inhibit …

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the world's most recognized and notorious cause of death.
It is known that increased triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) and remnants of triglyceride …

Thrombosis is the most common underlying pathology responsible for morbidity and
mortality in cardiovascular disease (CVD). Platelet adhesion, activation, and aggregation …

Atherosclerosis and its complications are responsible for more global deaths than any other
disease. Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of medium and large arteries that …

We have reviewed effects of long chain (LC) n-3 PUFA on markers of atherosclerosis in
human subjects with a focus on individual effects of EPA and DHA. Initial results from …

To further understand potential mechanisms underlying the protective effects of
eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) against atherosclerosis, J774 macrophages were used to …

The effects of n3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on cardiovascular disease are
controversial. We currently explored the effects of various ratios of docosahexaenoic acid …
