Influence of eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5, n-3) on secretion of lipoproteins in CaCo-2 cells.

CaCo-2 cells, grown on filter membranes, were used to study the effects of fatty acids on cellular metabolism of triacylglycerol and phospholipids. The rate of triacylglycerol secretion was enhanced more than 2-fold, from 1 to 2 weeks after reaching confluency, in the presence of 0.6 mM fatty acids....
