Our previous study has shown that overload of lipid accumulation results in cell apoptosis and inflammation in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). In this study, we investigated the potential protective effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on inhibiting oleic acid (OA)-induced apoptosis and
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an intestinal disorder, involving chronic and relapsing inflammation of the digestive tract. Dysregulation of the immune system based on genetic, environmental, and other factors seems to be involved in the onset of IBD, but its exact pathogenesis remains unclear.
Workers exposed to organic dusts from concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) are at risk for developing airway inflammatory diseases. Available preventative and therapeutic measures for alleviating dust-induced lung disease are inadequate. Because omega-3 fatty acids can mitigate
METHODS
High intakes of n-3 fatty acids exert anti-inflammatory effects and cardiovascular protection, but the underlying molecular basis is incompletely defined. By genome-wide analysis we searched for novel effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on gene expression and pathways in human vascular
OBJECTIVE
Adipose tissue inflammation with immune cell recruitment plays a key role in obesity-induced insulin resistance (IR). Long-chain (LC) n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) have anti-inflammatory potential; however, their
There is no consensus on the effects of omega-3 (ω-3) fatty acids (FA) on cutaneous repair. To solve this problem, we used 2 different approaches: 1) FAT-1 transgenic mice, capable of producing endogenous ω-3 FA; 2) wild-type (WT) mice orally supplemented with DHA-enriched fish oil. FAT-1 mice had
Alterations in corneal innervations result in impaired corneal sensation, severe dry eye and damage to the epithelium that may in turn lead to corneal ulcers, melting and perforation. These alterations can occur after refractive surgery. We have discovered that pigment epithelium-derived factor
Accumulating evidence suggested that hyperglycemia played a critical role in hippocampus dysfunction in patients with diabetes mellitus. However, the multifactorial pathogenesis of hyperglycemia-induced impairments of hippocampal neurons has not been fully elucidated. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has
BACKGROUND
N-3 Fatty acids reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Previous studies have shown that they may reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, and fat mass in patients with type 2 diabetes, but the results are inconclusive, due, in part, to type of omega-3 fatty acids used. The aim of this
A critical step in the development of chronic inflammatory diseases is the accumulation of proinflammatory macrophages in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of peripheral tissues. The adhesion receptor integrin αDβ2 promotes the development of atherosclerosis and diabetes by
n-3 fatty acids reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease via a number of possible mechanisms. Despite this, there has been concern that these fatty acids may increase lipid peroxidation. The data in vivo are inconclusive, due in part to limitations in the methodologies. In this regard, the
OBJECTIVE
To observe the effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on the expressions of TNF-α, IL-6, and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) in serum and expression of NF-κB in pulmonary tissue of rats with severe scald injury.
METHODS
One hundred and sixty SD rats were divided into sham injury (A), sham injury+DHA
BACKGROUND
We have shown that a depletion of omega3 polysaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) plays a role in the pathophysiology of depression, in part because omega3 PUFAs have anti-inflammatory effects. omega3 PUFAs are frequently employed to treat depression. Most if not all antidepressants have
Adverse gastrointestinal (GI) effects caused by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including indomethacin, are recognized as the major limitation to their clinical use. NSAID-induced gastric damage is generated by cyclooxygenase inhibition, activation of inflammatory processes, and
The present study investigated whether daily systemic administration of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in rats could attenuate the hyperexcitability of trigeminal spinal nucleus caudalis (SpVc) neurons associated with hyperalgesia. Inflammation was induced in rats by injecting complete Freund's adjuvant
