This study showed that DHA cholesteryl ester and EPA one were useful industrially, as both exerted higher effects to retard the NASH progress approximately 10 times than the respective ethyl ester. By evaluation system to reproduce NASH aggravation by choline deficient high fat diets and besides recurrent intermittent oxygen deficiency stress, it was exhibited that the efficacies resulted from relieving the decreased erythrocyte deformability and the persistent oxidative stress-inflammation.
