Many studies reported that pre-treatment with omega-3 fatty acids as a dominant constituent of chia seed oils reduces the detrimental oxidative effects of myocardial infarction because of its potent antioxidant properties either by increasing the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase, superoxide dismutase or by increasing the level of non-enzymatic antioxidant markers such as GSH [41]. The gene discussed is CAT; the disease is myocardial infarction.
