Publisher Summary The chapter focuses on dietary fatty acid-induced proinflammatory
pathways mediated by the induction of oxidative stress, activation of redox-regulated
transcription factors, and the inflammatory genes. Fatty acids can modulate inflammatory
responses in numerous tissues, including the vascular endothelium. At least two different
independent pathways can be responsible for these effects. These pathways are linked to
either eicosanoid production or redox-regulated gene expression. Traditionally, lipid …
