Omega-3 compound shows promise in lab study to fight inflammation
NCT ID NCT05161702
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether a special form of omega-3 (monoglycerides) can help reduce inflammation in blood cells. Researchers will take blood from 200 healthy adults, treat the cells in a lab dish with an inflammatory agent, and then add the omega-3 compound to see if it lowers inflammation. The goal is to understand how omega-3s might work to resolve inflammation at the cellular level.
