Dietary fish oil decreases C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and triacylglycerol to HDL-cholesterol ratio in postmenopausal women on HRT.
TL;DR: It is suggested that dietary fish oil may decrease the risk for cardiovascular disease through the modulation of both plasma lipids and inflammatory markers in healthy postmenopausal women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of modified C-reactive protein in U937-derived macrophages
TL;DR: Examination of natural expression of CRP in undifferentiated, differentiated, and stimulated macrophages, cells known to contribute to atherogenesis in vivo, and whether transcribed CRP was expressed as nCRP or mCRP indicates that U937-derivedmacrophages are a good cell model to further study the production of m CRP under conditions relevant for the atherogenic process.
