Lipoprotein, lecithin:cholesterol acyl transferase and acetyl CoA carboxylase in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats fed a diet high in eicosapentaenoic acid.

Only registered users can translate articles

To investigate the effect of dietary eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) on plasma lipoprotein levels, lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity and liver acetyl CoA carboxylase activity, highly concentrated EPA (78%) purified from sardine oil was fed to stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive

[A case of mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS), showing temporary improvement during the treatment with eicosapentaenoic acid ethyl ester].

Only registered users can translate articles

We report a 67-year-old man with mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS), successfully treated with eicosapentaenoic acid ethyl ester (EPA-E) for about eight months. He showed bilateral auditory disturbance and slowly progressive gait ataxia at age 50

Age Stratification and Impact of Eicosapentaenoic Acid and Docosahexaenoic Acid to Arachidonic Acid Ratios in Ischemic Stroke Patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE We focused on the ratios of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to arachidonic acid (AA) and explored the significance of these ratios relative to clinical characteristics by age in ischemic stroke patients. METHODS We enrolled patients with acute ischemic stroke who

Eicosapentaenoic Acid as long-term secondary prevention after ischemic stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND It is sometimes difficult to choose anti-thrombotic agents for secondary prevention in stroke patients at high bleeding risk. Recently, Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) was reported to reduce the recurrence of stroke in hypercholesterolemic patients without increasing hemorrhagic risk. In this

Comparison of eicosapentaenoic acid concentrations in plasma between patients with ischemic stroke and control subjects.

OBJECTIVE ω-3 fatty acids, including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), prevent ischemic stroke. However, the clinical importance of EPA for ischemic stroke and its subtype has not been fully elucidated. METHODS In a cross-sectional study, we determined whether ω-3 fatty acids were predictive factors for

Reduction in the recurrence of stroke by eicosapentaenoic acid for hypercholesterolemic patients: subanalysis of the JELIS trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The JELIS trial examined the preventive effect of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) against coronary artery diseases. Hypercholesterolemic patients received statin only (no EPA group: n=9319) or statin with EPA (EPA group: n=9326) for around 5 years. EPA significantly suppressed the incidence of

Effect of dietary eicosapentaenoic acid on plasma lipids and platelet function in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat.

Only registered users can translate articles

An investigation was undertaken to study the effect of EPA in rats fed different protein sources. A highly concentrated EPA (78% EPA, ethyl ester form), manufactured from sardine oil was administered to SHRSP (Stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat) and WKY (Wistar Kyoto) for 4 weeks. Casein or

Effect of dietary protein on the peroxidation of eicosapentaenoic acid in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

In order to investigate the effect of dietary EPA on liver GSH peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity in rats, highly concentrated EPA (78% ethyl ester form) was administrated to SHRSP (Stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat) that were fed a casein, SPI (soybean protein isolate) or SPI diet with

Intravenous Treatment with a Long-Chain Omega-3 Lipid Emulsion Provides Neuroprotection in a Murine Model of Ischemic Stroke - A Pilot Study.

Only registered users can translate articles

Single long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (e.g. docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) or eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)) are known for their neuroprotective properties associated with ischemic stroke. This pilot study aimed to test the effectiveness of an acute treatment with a long-chain omega-3 lipid emulsion

Low levels of plasma omega 3-polyunsaturated fatty acids are associated with cerebral small vessel diseases in acute ischemic stroke patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cerebral small vessel diseases (SVDs) are related to stroke or cognitive dysfunction. n-3-polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) represent possible disease-modifying factors for cardiovascular disease or dementia. Our hypothesis was

Interrelationships between salt and fish oil in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat.

Only registered users can translate articles

The cardiovascular effects of a partially purified extract of fish oil, enriched in the n-3 series fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), were studied in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR-SP) fed with high- and low-sodium diets during 5 weeks.

Dietary fish oil administration retards the development of hypertension and influences vascular neuroeffector function in the stroke prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRSP).

Only registered users can translate articles

An influence of fish oils (rich in eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA) in modulating (a) the development of hypertension in the stroke prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRSP) and (b) vascular neuroeffector mechanisms in the SHRSP was explored. Rats (SHRSP) were placed on a series of diets for a period

Elective Carotid Stenting After Urgent Best Medical Treatment Suppresses Recurrent Stroke in Patients With Symptomatic Carotid Artery Severe Stenosis

Only registered users can translate articles

Objective: Urgent carotid endarterectomy and carotid artery stenting (CAS) for symptomatic advanced carotid artery stenosis is controversial because carry risks of hemorrhagic and thromboembolic complications. As treatments for preventing recurrent stroke have

Effects of eicosapentaenoic acid on asymmetric dimethylarginine in patients in the chronic phase of cerebral infarction: a preliminary study.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) possesses a variety of pharmacologic actions and demonstrates protective efficacy against stroke. Meanwhile, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) is an endogenous nitric oxide synthase inhibitor and is thereby considered one of the risk factors of cardiovascular
