Evaluation of the Relationship between Endometriosis and Omega-3 and Omega-6 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids
Background: Endometriosis is a common chronic inflammation causing major problems including infertility. The role of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids as their potential anti-inflammatory effects in endometriosis needs to be further explored. The objective of this study was to compare serum phospholipid fatty acid profile in endometriosis patients with controls, and to explore the correlation of ...
متن کاملOmega-3 Long Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids as Sensitizing
The efficacy of chemotherapy depends on sensitivity and intrinsic or acquired drug 14 resistance of cancer cells. The n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPUFAs) are 15 considered chemosensitizing agents and revertants of multidrug resistance by pleiotropic 16 mechanisms. The specific mechanisms are not fully understood, but nowadays, it is widely accepted 17 that there are a compl...
متن کاملOmega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids for the treatment and prevention of colorectal cancer.
Omega (ω)-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are naturally occurring substances that are well tolerated and have been used extensively for the prevention of cardiovascular disease. More recently, ω-3 PUFAs have been recognised to have anticancer activity. There is also evidence suggesting improved efficacy and/or tolerability of conventional cancer chemotherapy when administered with ω-3 PUF...
متن کاملω3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids as Immunomodulators in Colorectal Cancer: New Potential Role in Adjuvant Therapies
Diet composition may affect the onset and progression of chronic degenerative diseases, including cancer, whose pathogenesis relies on inflammatory processes. Growing evidence indicates that diet and its components critically contribute to human health, affecting the immune system, secretion of adipokines, and metabolic pathways. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of death wor...
متن کاملHeterologous Reconstitution of Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Arabidopsis
Reconstitution of nonnative, very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (VLC-PUFA) biosynthetic pathways in Arabidopsis thaliana was undertaken. The introduction of three primary biosynthetic activities to cells requires the stable coexpression of multiple proteins within the same cell. Herein, we report that C22 VLC-PUFAs were synthesized from C18 precursors by reactions catalyzed by Δ(6)-desa...
