Purpose: Heat shock proteins (HSP-27) are reported to be involved in the pathophysiology of diabetes complications. The purpose of the current study is to assess the effects of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) supplementation on serum HSP-27, glycemic status and anthropometric indices in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients.

Methods: Thirty-six patients with T2DM were randomly allocated to obtain 2 g per day EPA (n = 18) or placebo (n = 18) for 8 weeks in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Fasting serum levels of HSP 27, fasting blood sugar, hemoglobin A1C, as well as anthropometric indices were measured.

Results: EPA supplementation reduces the serum level of HSP 27 in the EPA group compared with the placebo (P < 0.03). Although waist circumference (WC) decreased significantly in the EPA group at the end of the trial (P < 0.02), there was no significant difference in weight, WC, body mass index (BMI), and glycemic markers in both groups after intervention (P > 0.05).

Conclusions: We found that EPA supplementation reduces HSP 27 serum level in T2DM patients. However, future large-scale trials are needed.
