Investigation of the mechanisms underlying the effect of oleic acid and docosahexaenoic acid on DNA methylation in Jurkat cells
2019-01-01
Abstract excerpt
There is evidence that olive oil, rich in oleic acid (OA), and fish oil, rich in docosa-hexaenoic acid (DHA), can modify the DNA methylation in human blood cells in vivo. However, the mechanisms underlying such effect are not well understood. To address this, a model to study DNA methylation changes was developed using the in vitro treatment of Jurkat cells with OA or DHA. Analysis showed that 15μM OA or DHA treat...
