Eicosapentaenoic acid and 5-HEPE enhance macrophage-mediated Treg induction in mice

Abstract Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is an omega-3 fatty acid with immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects. Beyond its direct effects, the metabolic products of EPA also regulate various immune responses. Animal experiments demonstrated that EPA reduces adipose inflammation in high fat diet-i...
