Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of omega 3 supplementation and its concurrent supplementation with vitamin E on the serum levels of antioxidant enzymes and the expressions of the PGC-1a, h TERT, FOXO1, FOXO3a , SIRT1,SIRT3, SIRT6 genes in PBMC cells in the patients with coronary artery disease
