Fatty alcohols can reduce platelet aggregation, LDL in blood and cholesterol synthesis and prevention of atherosclerosis.Aldehydes are intermediates in the biosynthesis of alcohols from fatty acids [21].Phytosterols act as anti-inflammatory agents on macrophages (increase of phosphatase SHP-1 activity, secretion of anti-inflammatory interleukin IL-10, reducing transcription factor activation and decrease on the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-12 and IL-5) [22,23]. This evidence concerns the gene IL10 and atherosclerosis.
