Dietary factors regulating NO production

[madman]

Table 1- unsaturated fatty acids n-3 (fish oil epa/dha),n-6 (linoleic acid),n-9 (oleic acid).


Saturated fats and triglyceridemia impair endothelial NO production with lower NOS3 phosphorylation and insulin-mediated vasodilation and increased NOS2 activity/n-3 and n-6 pufa increase NO production by endothelial cells/ n-9 pufa inhibit NO production by decreasing NOS3 activity.
