Palmitoleic acid (PLOA) markedly prolonged the survival time of mice bearing Ehrlich ascites tumor at doses of 37.5-150 mg/kg/day X 10, but the antitumor activity of oleic acid (OA) was weaker than that of PLOA. The total lipid and phospholipid contents in the tumor cells treated with PLOA were
OBJECTIVE
To assess the association of proportions of fatty acids in cholesterol esters with the risk of premature death from cancer in middle aged men.
METHODS
Prospective cohort study.
METHODS
Paris, France.
METHODS
3277 working men aged 36-52 in 1981-5.
METHODS
Cancer mortality during an average
BACKGROUND
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in the world, and the most frequent cancer among women. Moreover, there are factors that influence the risk for breast cancer including the age, genetic and endocrine factors, and lifestyle.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the consumption of fatty
Ecological and case-control studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between consumption of fat and the risk of prostate cancer. Two recent human studies have focused on alpha-linolenic acid as a risk factor for prostate cancer. Animal experiments have shown that dietary omega-6
The effect of physiologic common free fatty acids (FFAs) on Mat 1376b ascites tumor cells in vitro and in vivo in F344 rats was investigated. Unsaturated fatty acids, such as palmitoleic (16:1), oleic (18:1), linoleic (18:2), linolenic (18:3), and arachidonic (20:4) acids, were significantly more
Yoshida sarcoma cells were incubated with each of 4 different saturated and 17 different unsaturated fatty acid methyl and ethyl esters in order to modify the fatty acid composition of the cell membrane, and a possible correlation between the lipid fluidity of the cell membrane and the metastatic
Palmitoleic acid (PM, 16:1n-7) has anti-inflammatory properties that could be linked to higher expression of PPARα, an inhibitor of NFκB. Macrophages play a major role in the pathogenesis of chronic inflammation, however, the effects of PM on macrophages are underexplored. Thus, we aimed to
Fatty acids (FAs) may affect endothelial cell (EC) function, influencing atherogenesis and inflammatory processes. Palmitoleic acid (POA) has been described as an anti-inflammatory FA. However, its effects on ECs are underexplored. This study compares the effects of POA with those of palmitic acid
Previous studies have shown that metabolomics can be a useful tool to better understand the mechanisms of carcinogenesis; however, alterations in biochemical pathways that lead to bladder cancer (BC) development have hitherto not been fully investigated. In this study, gas chromatography-mass
Fatty acid levels in plasma phospholipids were related to food intake over the previous year as estimated by semiquantitative food frequency questionnaires compiled by 280 men and 246 women from the EPIC centers of Varese, Turin, Florence and Ragusa (Italy). Fatty acid content was determined by gas
BACKGROUND
Fatty acid (FA) composition in serum has been associated with C-reactive protein (CRP), but associations with other markers of inflammation and endothelial function, e.g. adhesion molecules are unknown. We recently suggested a possible role of the lipogenic enzyme stearoyl coenzymeA
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) as a global health problem has clinical manifestations ranging from simple non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis, and cancer. The role of different types of fatty acids in driving the early progression of NAFL to
The comparative effects of high-fat diets (20%, w/w) on eicosanoid synthesis during mammary tumor promotion in 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA)-induced rats were studied using diets containing 20% primrose oil (PO), 20% menhaden oil (MO) or 20% corn oil (CO). Sprague-Dawley rats fed the PO or
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) functions as the rate-limiting step in arachidonic acid metabolism and in the removal of damaged or peroxidized membrane lipids. It is elevated in some human tumors and may be involved with mechanisms of tumor promotion. In vitro systems have shown PLA2 activity to be altered
Epidemiological and laboratory animal model studies have provided evidence that the effect of dietary fat on colon tumorigenesis depends on the amount of fat and its composition. Because of the importance of the composition of dietary fat and of tissue membrane fatty acid composition in tumor
