n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation, monocyte adhesion molecule expression and pro‐inflammatory mediators in Type 2 diabetes mellitus

Abstract: This study does not support increased monocyte adhesion molecule expression or abnormal monocyte production of pro-inflammatory mediators as mechanisms for increased atherogenic risk in Type 2 diabetes. Cardioprotective actions of n-3 fatty acids may not be mediated through these mechanisms.

“…Previous in-vitro studies in the mouse [32] and a small study in humans reported lower HLA-DR expression after fish oil, [33] but a larger study of fish oil supplementation in patients with Type 2 diabetes also showed no effect of fish oil on monocyte HLA-DR expression. [34] We found no significant correlations between HLA-DR expression on monocytes or B lymphocytes and erythrocyte EPA or DHA. However, in regression analysis the significant independent positive predictors of neonatal plasma F 2 -isoprostanes were the percentage of unstimulated monocytes expressing HLA-DR and erythrocyte AA, whilst the level of erythrocyte EPA was independently and negatively related to plasma F 2 -isoprostanes.…”

“…The findings of Abe et al show that short-term administration of omega-3 fatty acids is ineffective on vascular inflammation markers whereas long-term administration is effective as in our study. In agreement with the findings of Abe et al, Sampson et al [14 ]indicated that the administration of 2 g omega-3 fatty acids to diabetic patients for 6 weeks had no effect on serum concentrations of sICAM-1, sVCAM-1 and sE-selectin. Two other studies showed that omega-3 fatty acids were ineffective on plasma P-selectin [22,23].…”

“…The minimum sample size estimation for each group was 16 at a power of 1 – β of 90% and α = 0.05 for a two-arm parallel study with two-tailed testing to detect a difference of 95 ng/ml in serum sVCAM-1 concentration with a pooled standard deviation of 83 ng/ml, obtained from the study by Sampson et al [14]. …”

“…The effects of marine n-3 fatty acids on circulating inflammatory markers among individuals with a high risk of developing CVD are shown in Table 3 [3549] . Four of fifteen trials reported a reduction in the concentration of inflammatory markers after intake of marine n-3 fatty acids [35, 36, 45, 46], while nine studies did not observe any effects on inflammation [37–44, 48]. An increase in inflammatory markers [49] was reported in one study.…”
