Hemostatic factors and platelet aggregation after a fish-enriched diet or fish oil or docosahexaenoic acid supplementation

Prostaglandins, Leukotrienes, and Essential Fatty Acids

Abstract

The effects of a fish-enriched diet or dietary supplements consisting of either fish oil or a docosahexaenoic acid-rich oil (DHA-oil) on platelet aggregation and hemostatic factors were studied in healthy male students. After an experimental period of 15 weeks, the levels of tissue factor pathway inhibitor, prothrombin fragment 1+2 and fibrinogen as well as factor VII activity were not changed. Factor X activity was slightly decreased by the fish diet (P < 0.05). Collagen but not ADP-induced maximum platelet aggregation decreased in the fish diet and the fish oil groups (P < 0.05 in both). In the DHA-oil group there was a slight, statistically insignificant, increase of platelet aggregation which correlated significantly with the decrease of plasma triglycerides. Platelet aggregation measured 4 h after a standardized fat meal was lower than in the fasting state and this decrease correlated with the increase of plasma triglycerides. These results show that a fish diet and fish oil, but not DHA-oil, inhibit in vitro platelet aggregation and that hemostatic factors are not affected by moderate n-3 fatty acid supplementation.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
