Eicosapentaenoic Acid sodium
LC-PUFA
Eicosapentaenoic Acid Sodium is an orally active omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LC-PUFA) that primarily targets DNA demethylation processes. This compound enhances the re-expression of the tumor suppressor gene CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein δ (C/EBPδ) and activates the RAS/ERK/C/EBPβ signaling pathway through H-Ras intron 1 CpG island demethylation in U937 leukemia cells. Additionally, Eicosapentaenoic Acid Sodium is known to promote relaxation of vascular smooth muscle cells, contributing to vasodilation. This makes it a valuable reagent for studies in cancer biology and cardiovascular research.
