Description générale

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)/timnodonic acid is an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). This long-chain fatty acid is mainly found in fish oil.

Application

cis-5,8,11,14,17-Eicosapentaenoic acid sodium salt has been used:
  • to study its effect on the pathology of lupus in drug-induced and spontaneous mouse models
  • to pretreat mouse alveolar macrophages to study the effect/relationship between amiodarone and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) concerning the cytokine release
  • to examine if pharmacological correction with EPA supplementation might restore autophagic flux and reduce renal lipotoxicity in mice

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) possesses anti-hyperglycemic, anti-oxidant, anti-hyperlipidemic, and anti-inflammatory properties. It aids in improving vasoreactivity. EPA is capable of suppressing vascular smooth muscle proliferation. It ameliorates pulmonary hypertension by preventing Fyn kinase activity. EPA exhibits a beneficial effect on lipid metabolism. It is used to treat hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis.
5-Lipoxygenase inhibitor; reduces thromboxane A2 production.

I studied the effect of amiodarone, a cationic amphiphilic drug, on the cytokine release and protein kinase C (PKC) activity of mouse alveolar macrophages. In addition, I examined the relationship between amiodarone and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) with respect to the

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), have been reported to prevent neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) in both experimental and clinical/epidemiological studies. However, whether DHA and EPA from natural products exert
