摘要

Background: Fish oil supplementation has been shown to attenuate hyperpnea- and exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. In vitro studies suggest that the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), rather than eicosapentaenoic acid, may be the potent component of fish oil.Objective: Therefore, the main aim of this study was to determine whether DHA supplementation can attenuate hyperpnea-induced bronchoconstriction (HIB) and airway inflammation in adults with asthma compared to placebo.Methods: Nine subjects (aged 18-30 years) with asthma and HIB participated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial where they received either 4.0 g of DHA or placebo capsules for 3 weeks. Following a 2-week washout phase, subjects then received the opposite supplement for 3 weeks. Subjects were tested in a laboratory following an initial 2-week run-in phase and after each supplementation phase. Each time, bronchoprovocation was elicited with eucapnic voluntary hyperventilation (EVH), a surrogate for an exercise challenge. Prior to and following the EVH challenge, pulmonary function, exhaled breath condensate (EBC) pH, and EBC concentrations of 8-isoprostane and the DHA metabolites 17S-hydroxydocosahexaenoic acid and protectin D1 were measured. This study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov (study # NCT01200446).Results: Nine subjects completed the crossover design protocol without any adverse effects. There were no significant changes (p > 0.05) in any variables measured (i.e., percent change in forced expiratory volume-1-sec, EBC pH, 8-isoprostane, protectin D1 and 17S-hydroxydocosahexaenoic acid) among the pre-supplementation, placebo, and DHA tests. The effect size (ω2) for the maximum percent change in FEV1 was 0.08.Conclusion: The data indicate that supplementation with 4.0 g of DHA for 3 weeks does not attenuate HIB or airway inflammation in asthmatic subjects compared to baseline or placebo. Variations in study design, including time course, dose, and route of administration, should be conducted to further address DHA’s role as a potential treatment for HIB. Introduction The Center for Disease Control recently reported that 8.2% of the United States population has asthma [1]. Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is an important complication of this chronic inflammatory disease of the airways as patients with asthma often report limitations in their physical activity [2]. Moreover, EIB is an indication that a patient’s current asthma treatment may be inadequate [3]. As nearly a third of the estimated $19.7 billion in direct and indirect healthcare costs for asthma in 2007 stemmed from prescription medications [4], there is a growing interest in non-pharmacological alternatives to treat this condition.A nutritional approach is an appealing alternative as the prevalence of asthma has been linked to societal changes in diet [5]. Moreover, dietary supplement use is already popular in both the general and asthmatic populations, for according to a recent National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, approximately 50% of people in both of these populations reported "dietary supplement use in the last 30 days." [6]. It is thus important to study these nutritional supplements and their effect on asthma in order to form a scientific basis upon which clinicians can recommend their proper and safe use. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) supplementation is used by 6.7% of asthmatics as nutritional therapy [6]. The omega-3 PUFAs eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) are the primary components of fish oil. Previous research has shown that supplementation with fish oil (3.2 g EPA and 2.0-2.2 g DHA per day for 3 weeks) reduces airway inflammation and EIB in elite athletes without asthma [7] and in adults with asthma [8,9]. The mechanism of action of the omega-3 PUFAs is thought to involve decreasing the availability of the more pro-inflammatory omega-6 PUFA- derived metabolites (i
