Article Synopsis
- Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) and resistin are linked to metabolic issues related to unhealthy adipose tissue, and the impact of the dietary fatty acids EPA and DHA on this relationship is not well understood.
- A study involving 36 healthy individuals revealed that EPA and DHA were notably associated with resistin and had a marginal connection with PAI-1, influencing glucose metabolism metrics like insulin levels and resistance.
- The findings suggest that EPA and DHA may improve glucose metabolism independently of other metabolic risk factors, indicating their potential role in managing adipose tissue function.
