  • Title: Leukocytes and tissue injury: the use of eicosapentaenoic acid in the control of white cell activation.
    Author: Moncada S, Salmon JA.
    Journal: Wien Klin Wochenschr; 1986 Feb 21; 98(4):104-6. PubMed ID: 3010576.
    Abstract:
    Eicosapentaenoic acid enriched diet may reduce the severity of acute inflammatory reactions by decreasing the synthesis of dienoic prostanoids and tetraenoic leukotrienes. The findings suggest that a nutritional approach to anti-inflammatory therapy is an interesting possibility deserving further studies.
