“…It seems, 2–4 g/d omega-3 has a beneficial effect on TG, but not TC, LDL-c and HDL-c. Omega-3 by inducing β-oxidation, decreasing VLDL synthesis, regulating gene expression of sterol-regulatory element-binding protein-1 (SREBP-1) and carbohydrate response element binding protein (ChREBP), modulating the TG synthesis, activating phosphatidic acid, diacylglycerol acyltransferase as well as LPL, and reducing the TG clearance from circulating VLDL particles can regulate serum TG [ 17 , 21 , 44 – 46 ]. To follow the principals of ethics in research, we clarify that our research group reported the effect of omega-3 fatty acids on fatty liver, visceral adiposity index, insulin resistance, body composition and lipid profile, previously [ 26 , 47 ]. We used the same data for the present article.…”
