Abstract

The effect of marine n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on proliferation of human T-cells in vitro was compared to other polyunsaturated, monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids. Monoenes and saturated fatty acids had little effect on T-cell proliferation. Eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid exerted a strong dose-dependent inhibitory effect on proliferation of mitogen- or antigen-stimulated T-cells, similar to that observed for arachidonic acid. Sixty microM of albumin-bound eicosapentaenoic acid or arachidonic acid promoted 25-40% inhibition of proliferation of T-cells stimulated with mitogen, whereas the same concentration of albumin-bound docosahexaenoic acid promoted 60% inhibition. When epidermal cells (Langerhans cells) were used as antigen-presenting cells, 100 microM of albumin-bound eicosapentaenoic acid or arachidonic acid caused 40% inhibition on T-cell proliferation. Low density lipoprotein (LDL), isolated after four months of dietary intake of fish oil or corn oil, inhibited mitogen-stimulated T-cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Fish oil- and corn oil-enriched LDL showed similar ability to inhibit T-cell proliferation. Epidermal cells preincubated with docosahexaenoic acid, and extensively wa...Continue Reading

ApoE, Lipids & Cholesterol

Serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins (very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), immediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein A (LPA)) and the total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio are all connected in diseases. Here is the latest research.
