Effects of Eicosapentaenoic Acid and Docosahexaenoic Acid on Chylomicron and VLDL Synthesis and Secretion in Caco-2 Cells

Figure 6

Effect of OA, EPA, and DHA on Caco-2 cell lipoprotein synthesis and secretion. Caco-2 cells plated on filter membranes and cultured for 21 days were incubated with OA, EPA, and DHA for 36 h. Cells were harvested and basolateral medium was collected for lipoprotein isolation as described in Section 2. CM: chylomicrons; VLDL: very low-density lipoprotein; OA: oleic acid; EPA: eicosapentaenoic acid; DHA: docosahexaenoic acid. Data are expressed as mean ± SD of 6 different experiments. Means without a common letter differ between fatty acids, .
