“…Therefore, various pro-inflammatory biomarkers as TNF-α and IL-6 have been extensively investigated as a potential enhancement of cardiovascular risk and reflect different pathophysiological pathways underlying CVD [52]. In addition, C-reactive protein (CRP), a classical protein marker that is significantly elevated in the acute phase of inflammation, infection, and tissue damage [53]. Meanwhile, IL-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine down-regulates the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines as TNF-α and consequently reduces the damage caused by pro-inflammatory cytokines [9].…”

Background: The quantity and type of dietary fatty acids play an important role in the risk development of cardiovascular disease. Aims: The current study was designed to investigate fatty acid profile of flaxseed oil (FO) and assessment the possible cardiovascular protective potentials of FO on Sprague-Dawley rats fed on high cholesterol diet (HCD) for 12 weeks and explores the possible mechanism of action. Methodology: Fatty acid profile of FO was investigated by Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionization
