Inhibition of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase activity by synthetic phosphatidylcholine species containing eicosapentaenoic acid or docosahexaenoic acid in the sn-2 position.
Phospholipids isolated from the plasma of monkeys fed a diet enriched in fish oil were poor substrates for cholesteryl ester (CE) synthesis by the lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) reaction relative to those from animals fed a lard containing diet when the phospholipids were used for the p...
