Blood Coagulation and Fibrinolysis of Rats Fed Fish Oil: Reduced Coagulation Factors Especially Involved in Intrinsic Pathway and Increased Activity of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor.

Investigates the differences in the coagulation and fibrinolytic system of rats fed a fish oil-based diet and fed a soybean oil-based diet. Growing interest in the functionality of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids to modulate health and disease; Lipid-lowering activity of fish oil; Effects of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on the level of eicosanoids; Reduction of fibrinolysis.
