Effect of n-3 LCPUFA supplementation on the production of lymphotoxin (LT). (a) Peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes were incubated with PHA and the production of LT was determined after 72 h incubation. *p < 0.05, significance of difference between placebo and supplemented (Student t-test). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM; n = 9 for the placebo group and n = 13 for the supplemented group. (b) Relationship between LT production and erythrocyte membrane eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) after 6 months supplementation.
