Effects of Eicosapentaenoic Acid on Arterial Calcification

Eicosapentaenoic acid prevents arterial calcification in klotho mutant mice

BACKGROUND The klotho gene was identified as an "aging-suppressor" gene that accelerates arterial calcification when disrupted. Serum and vascular klotho levels are reduced in patients with chronic kidney disease, and the reduced levels are associated with arterial calcification. Intake of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), an n-3 fatty acid, reduces the risk of fatal coronary artery disease. However...

Effects of three trans isomers of eicosapentaenoic acid on rat platelet aggregation and arachidonic acid metabolism.

Three trans isomers of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) were added to rat platelets stimulated with arachidonic acid (AA) in order to compare their effects on platelet aggregation and on AA oxygenation with those of EPA. The production of metabolites from radiolabelled 20:5delta 17trans was studied also. EPA induced an inhibition of platelet aggregation of 26.7 +/- 6.6% for a 20:5/20:4 ratio equal t...

Effects of dietary treatment of rats with eicosapentaenoic acid or docosahexaenoic acid on hepatic lipid metabolism.

(1) Effects of dietary treatment of male albino rats with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or docosahexaenoic acid on hepatic mitochondrial lipid metabolism have been investigated. (2) Mitochondria isolated from rats given these treatments were shown to have increased ability to respire on acyl-CoA esters in the presence of malonate. This effect was expressed with most of the long-chain acyl-CoA est...
