n-3 fatty acids: biochemical actions in cancer.
A number of reports indicate that fish n-3 PUFA inhibit the development, growth and progression of several experimental tumors. There emerges a pattern of complex and diverse biochemical actions of n-3 PUFA in different animal tumor models, from the studies undertaken to date to evaluate the underlying mechanisms. These findings, along with the recent epidemiological evidence of an inverse corr...
متن کاملn-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and cancer.
n-3 Polyunsaturated fatty acids are promising molecules in cancer prevention and the potentiation of cancer treatment. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of their interactions with other food components. Their effects on tumor growth depend upon background levels of n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids and antioxidants, and this could account for previously inconsistent results in experi...
متن کاملn-3 Fatty acids in cardiovascular disease.
Copyright © 2011 Massachusetts Medical Society. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide, and preventive approaches, particularly achievable dietary changes, have major public health implications. An increased dietary intake of n–3 (polyunsaturated) fatty acids is one such dietary approach. This review discusses advances since the topic was last reviewed in the Journal1 an...

متن کاملn-3 fatty acids in psoriasis.
Increased concentrations of free arachidonic acid (AA) and its proinflammatory metabolites have been observed in psoriatic lesions. Replacement of arachidonic acid by alternative precursor polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), which can be metabolized via the same enzymatic pathways as AA, might be a therapeutic option in psoriasis. However the results of s...
