Eicosapentaenoic Acid sodium
Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) sodium salt is an ω-3 fatty acid that acts as an epigenetic modulator, demethylating DNA to reactivate the C/EBPδ tumor suppressor and the H-Ras gene. This activity engages the RAS/ERK/C/EBPβ pathway in leukemia cell studies and induces vasodilation via smooth muscle relaxation, supporting research in oncology and cardiovascular biology.
