Common NameEthyl icosapentate
DescriptionEthyl icosapentate, also known as icosapent or epadel, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as fatty acid esters. These are carboxylic ester derivatives of a fatty acid. Ethyl icosapentate is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Studies suggest that EPA reduces hepatic very low-density lipoprotein triglycerides (VLDL-TG) synthesis and/or secretion and enhances TG clearance from circulating VLDL particles. Ethyl icosapentate or Ethyl icosapentate is a synthetic derivative of the omega-3 fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Outside of the human body, Ethyl icosapentate has been detected, but not quantified in, fishes. This could make ethyl icosapentate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Potential mechanisms of action include increased β-oxidation; inhibition of acyl-CoA:1,2-Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT); decreased lipogenesis in the liver; and increased plasma lipoprotein lipase activity. It is used as adjunct therapy for severe hypertriglyceridemia (TG levels > 500 mg/dL). Once converted into active EPA, it is hepatically metabolized into acetyl Coenzyme A via beta-oxidation. It was first documented in 2013 (PMID: 23325450). FDA approved on July 26, 2012 (PMID: 23835245) (PMID: 23992935) (PMID: 24075771) (PMID: 24259598) (PMID: 24516343).
