Message definition (Ethyl eicosapentaenoic acid)
==Mechanism of action==
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), the active metabolite of ethyl eicosapentaenoic acid (E-EPA), like other omega-3 fatty acid based drugs, appears to reduce production of triglycerides in the liver and to enhance clearance of triglycerides from circulating [[very low-density lipoprotein]] (VLDL) particles. The way it does that is not clear, but potential mechanisms include increased [[Beta oxidation|breakdown of fatty acids]]; inhibition of [[diglyceride acyltransferase]], which is involved in biosynthesis of triglycerides in the liver; and increased activity of [[lipoprotein lipase]] in blood.
