DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the single largest killer for both men and women in the US. The Japanese in Japan continue to have very low CHD rates despite increasing levels of risk factors since the end of World War II (WWII). CHD mortality has been increasing in most Asian countries except for Japan. The Electron-Beam Tomography and Risk Assessment in the Japanese and US Men in the Post World War II Birth Cohort (ERA-JUMP) (HL068200 and HL071561) was designed to test the hypothesis that levels of subclinical atherosclerosis in men in the post WWII birth cohort, i.e., men aged 40-49, in Japan exposed for long periods of time to Westernized lifestyle are lower than in age-matched US Black, White, and Japanese American men. ERA-JUMP has documented that (1) the Japanese in Japan had significantly lower levels of subclinical atherosclerosis in the coronary and carotid arteries than US populations, (2) Japanese Americans had similar or higher levels of subclinical atherosclerosis as compared to Whites, (3) the Japanese in Japan had levels of serum marine n-3 fatty acids (marine n-3) higher by >100% than US populations, and (4) serum marine n-3 had a significant inverse association with subclinical atherosclerosis. Based on these results, we propose to conduct an analysis of the relationship of marine n-3 to the progression of subclinical atherosclerosis and to extend our findings to 2 additional cohorts for validation and evaluation. Aim 1: to determine the association of baseline serum marine n-3 with the progression of subclinical atherosclerosis in the ERA JUMP cohort: 300 Whites, 300 Japanese Americans, 300 Japanese in Japan, and 100 Blacks. We hypothesize that the progression is slower in the Japanese in Japan than US populations, and that marine n-3 has an inverse association with the progression. Aim 2: to determine the association of serum marine n-3 with subclinical atherosclerosis in an expanded study in Japan, 700 Japanese men aged 50-79. The subclinical atherosclerosis measures have already been done at no cost to this study since the study was funded in Japan. Our plan is to measure serum marine n-3 in these 700 men and relate them to the extent of subclinical atherosclerosis. Aim 3: to examine the relationship between serum marine n-3 and food intake in 1,200 Japanese and 260 Japanese American men and women from INTERLIPID, including detailed multiple 24-hour recalls. Our plan is to measure marine n-3 in the stored blood samples of these individuals and relate them to the detailed dietary data. Our central hypothesis is that very high intake of marine n-3 has a strong anti-atherogenic effect. This hypothesis is very different from benefits of much lower doses of marine n-3 on arrhythmias or the short term benefits of high dose marine n-3 in clinical trials among individuals with extensive atherosclerosis. This hypothesis cannot be studied in a US population because of their very low intakes of marine n-3. If our hypothesis were true that marine n-3 has a strong anti-atherogenic effect, especially at high levels observed in Japan, we may be able to reduce CHD rates in the US dramatically by greatly increasing the intake of marine n-3 in the general population in the US. Our baseline study found that in men aged 40-49, the Japanese in Japan had much lower levels of subclinical atherosclerosis than US populations, that Whites and Japanese Americans had similar levels, that serum levels of n-3 fatty acids found in fish were higher by >100% in the Japanese in Japan than in US populations, and that serum n-3 fatty acids found in fish had a strong inverse association with subclinical atherosclerosis, suggesting that n-3 fatty acids found in fish, especially at higher levels found in the Japanese in Japan, have a strong anti-atherosclerotic effect. In this application we will examine the association of serum n-3 fatty acids found in fish with the progression of subclinical atherosclerosis in the US populations and the Japanese in Japan. If our hypothesis were true that n-3 fatty acids found in fish have a strong anti-atherosclerotic effect, especially at high levels observed in Japan, we may be able to reduce coronary heart disease rates in the US dramatically by greatly increasing the intake of n-3 fatty acids found in fish in the general population in the US.

描述（由申请人提供）：冠心病（CHD）是美国男性和女性的最大单一杀手。尽管自第二次世界大战结束以来，危险因素不断增加，但日本人的冠心病发病率仍然很低。除日本外，大多数亚洲国家的冠心病死亡率一直在上升。二战后出生队列中日本和美国男性的电子束断层扫描和风险评估（ERA-JUMP） （HL068200和HL071561）旨在检验二战后出生队列中男性的亚临床动脉粥样硬化水平的假设，即长期暴露于西化生活方式的40-49岁的日本男性比同龄的美国黑人、白人和日裔美国男性低。ERA-JUMP记录了(1)日本人在冠状动脉和颈动脉的亚临床动脉粥样硬化水平明显低于美国人，(2)与白人相比，日裔美国人的亚临床动脉粥样硬化水平相似或更高，(3)日本人的血清海洋n-3脂肪酸（海洋n-3）水平比美国人高100倍，(4)血清海洋n-3与亚临床动脉粥样硬化呈显著负相关。基于这些结果，我们建议对海洋n-3与亚临床动脉粥样硬化进展的关系进行分析，并将我们的发现扩展到另外两个队列进行验证和评估。目的1：在ERA JUMP队列中确定基线血清海洋n-3与亚临床动脉粥样硬化进展的关系：300名白人，300名日裔美国人，300名日本人，100名黑人。我们假设日本人的进展速度比美国人慢，并且海洋n-3与进展呈负相关。目的2：在日本进行的一项扩大研究中，确定血清海洋n-3与亚临床动脉粥样硬化的关系，研究对象为700名年龄在50-79岁的日本男性。这项研究是在日本资助的，亚临床动脉粥样硬化测量已经免费完成。我们的计划是测量这700名男性的血清海洋n-3，并将其与亚临床动脉粥样硬化的程度联系起来。目的3：研究来自inter脂质研究的1200名日本人和260名日裔美国人的血清海洋n-3与食物摄入之间的关系，包括详细的多次24小时回忆。我们的计划是测量这些个体储存的血液样本中的海洋n-3，并将其与详细的饮食数据联系起来。我们的中心假设是，非常高的海洋n-3摄入量具有很强的抗动脉粥样硬化作用。这一假设与低剂量海洋n-3对心律失常的益处或在广泛动脉粥样硬化个体的临床试验中使用高剂量海洋n-3的短期益处有很大不同。这一假设无法在美国人群中进行研究，因为他们的海洋氮-3摄入量非常低。如果我们的假设是正确的，即海洋n-3具有很强的抗动脉粥样硬化作用，特别是在日本观察到的高水平，我们可能能够通过大大增加美国普通人群中海洋n-3的摄入量来显著降低美国的冠心病发病率。我们的基线研究发现,男性40至49岁的日本人在日本的水平低得多比我们人群亚临床动脉粥样硬化,白人和日本的美国人也有类似的水平,血清n - 3脂肪酸的鱼中发现高> 100%日本在日本比在美国人口,和血清n - 3脂肪酸发现鱼有强烈的逆与亚临床动脉粥样硬化,表明n - 3脂肪酸的鱼类,尤其是在日本人体内发现的较高水平，有很强的抗动脉粥样硬化作用。在本应用中，我们将研究在美国人群和日本人群中发现的鱼血清n-3脂肪酸与亚临床动脉粥样硬化进展的关系。如果我们的假设是正确的，即在鱼类中发现的n-3脂肪酸具有很强的抗动脉粥样硬化作用，特别是在日本观察到的高水平，我们可能能够通过大大增加美国普通人群中鱼类中发现的n-3脂肪酸的摄入量来显著降低美国的冠心病发病率。
