Cardiovascular Diseases Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of Ethyl Eicosapentaenoic Acid on Circulating Low-density Lipoproteins and Plasma Lipid Metabolism in Healthy Volunteers
40-70 healthy volunteers of ages 18 to 65 participate in a E-EPA-diet where 3,9 grams of E-EPA is added to their normal diet and lifestyles for a month. Blood samples will be collected before the study and at weeks 1 and 4 and also, two weeks after finishing the diet. Main study focuses are LDL aggregation susceptibility, lipid composition and proteoglycan binding affinity. In addition, important plasma lipid metabolism enzymes and lipid mediated resolvins are measured as well as several baseline characteristics.
Four grams of daily E-EPA was found to significantly decrease atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases in the REDUCE-IT study. In the upcoming study the effect of E-EPA to low-density lipoprotein (LDL) aggregation susceptibility is measured using dynamic light scattering technique to continuously measure particles size while inducing aggregation. LDL Lipid composition is analyzed using electrospray mass spectrometer optimized for lipid measurements. Previously is reported that the aggregation susceptibility is affected by the lipid composition which is modifiable (Ruuth et. al. Eur.H.Journal 2018). Common disease factors such as total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglyserides, ApoB-100, ApoA-I, Lp(a) and different modified LDL levels are measured. Also, activities of lipid metabolism enzymes like PON-1, LCAT, CETP, PLTP and lipid mediated resolvins are looked into. Objective is to identify changes and possible pathways that are altered by the increase of E-EPA and to use the data to possibly explain the health benefits of EPA. ;
