Omega-3 Fatty Acids Improve Functionality of High-Density Lipoprotein
This reduction may be a consequence of less hydrolysis of cholesterol ester bonds and TGs, leading to a reduction in free fatty acids and in the lipid transfer between lipoproteins. The functionality of HDL is influenced by the balance with other lipoproteins and lipid content such as total cholesterol and LDL-C.
