Immediate-release Niacin and a Monounsaturated Fatty Acid-rich Meal on Postprandial Inflammation and Monocyte Characteristics in Men with Metabolic Syndrome
(Elsevier, 2023)
Background & aim: When considered separately, long-term immediate-release niacin and fatty meals enriched in monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) decrease postprandial triglycerides, but their effects on postprandial ...

The effects of exogenous fatty acids and niacin on human monocyte-macrophage plasticity
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017)
Scope: Macrophage plasticity allows adapting to different environments, having a dual activity in inflammatory-related diseases. Our hypothesis is that the type of dietary fatty acids into human postprandial triglyceride-rich ...

Olive oil, compared to a saturated dietary fat, has a protective role on atherosclerosis in niacin-treated mice with metabolic syndrome
(Elsevier, 2016)
We aimed to investigate the impact of high-fat low-cholesterol diets rich in saturated fatty acids (HFLCD-SFAs), monounsaturated FAs (HFLCD-MUFAs) or MUFAs + omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated FAs (HFLCD-PUFAs) in combination ...
