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 complex network of mechanisms, including alteration in gene expression, 18 modulation of cellular…

n–3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Amides: New Avenues in the Prevention and Treatment of Breast Cancer
TLDR
The objective of this review is to provide a general overview and an update of the current n−3 PUFA derivative research and to highlight intriguing aspects of the potential therapeutic benefits of these low-toxicity compounds in breast cancer treatment and care.
G-Protein-Coupled Receptor 120 Mediates DHA-Induced Apoptosis by Regulating IP3R, ROS and, ER Stress Levels in Cisplatin-Resistant Cancer Cells
TLDR
GPR120 mediates DHA-induced apoptosis by regulating IP3R, ROS, and ER stress levels in cisplatin-resistant cancer cells, and that GPR120 is an effective chemotherapeutic target for cis Platin resistance.
Docosahexaenoic Acid Serving As Sensitizing Agents And Gefitinib Resistance Revertants In EGFR Targeting Treatment
TLDR
This is the first research that indicated the novel biochemical effect of DHA, which can help in overcoming the resistance of EGFR-TKI in NSCLC cells and broaden the horizon of the DHA supplementation during theNSCLC therapy.
Docosahexaenoic acid and TUG-891 activate free fatty acid-4 receptor in bovine neutrophils.
Omega-3PUFA Attenuates MNU-Induced Colorectal Cancer in Rats by Blocking PI3K/AKT/Bcl-2 Signaling
TLDR
Omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acid can attenuate MNU-induced colorectal cancer in rats by blocking PI3K/AKT/Bcl-2 signaling, which suggests that Omega-3PUFA may be a potent agent for CRC treatment.
OTT_A_225918 10547..10558
TLDR
This is the first research that indicated the novel biochemical effect of DHA, which can help in overcoming the resistance of EGFR-TKI in NSCLC cells and broaden the horizon of the DHA supplementation during theNSCLC therapy.
Low dose radiation, inflammation, cancer and chemoprevention
TLDR
Overall, LDR exerts mainly damaging effects through diverse cell and molecular mechanisms, with a few beneficial effects reported, and preclinical data suggest that anti-inflammatory dietary compounds such as PUFA and other dietary interventions may protect against radiation effects on cancer cells and cancer progression.

Omega 3 fatty acids chemosensitize multidrug resistant colon cancer cells by down-regulating cholesterol synthesis and altering detergent resistant membranes composition
TLDR
It is found that DHA and EPA re-activated Trc8 E3 ligase in MDR cells, restored the ubiquitination rate of HMGCoAR to levels comparable with chemosensitive cells, and reduced the cholesterol synthesis and incorporation in DRMs.
Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Promote Paclitaxel Cytotoxicity via Inhibition of the MDR1 Gene in the Human Colon Cancer Caco-2 Cell Line
TLDR
It is suggested that inhibition of the multidrug resistance MDR1/P-gp is one mechanism through which dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids exert a synergetic effect on the response of tumor cells to anticancer drugs.
The Effect of Fatty Acids and Analogues upon Intracellular Levels of Doxorubicin in Cells Displaying P-Glycoprotein Mediated Multidrug Resistance
TLDR
If fatty acids affect the intracellular transport and dynamics of doxorubicin in drug-resistant cancer cell lines, and to assess if such effects were mediated through modulation of P-gp efflux pump activity, EPADI was examined.
Effects of n-3 PUFAs on breast cancer cells through their incorporation in plasma membrane
TLDR
The results indicate that n-3 PUFA feeding might induce modifications of breast cancer membrane structure that increases the degree of fatty acid unsaturation.
Polyunsaturated fatty acids alter expression of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes in A549 cells exposed to doxorubicin.
TLDR
The present study was undertaken to investigate the effects of different concentrations of EPA and DHA on genes expression encoding antioxidant enzymes in low PUFAs content human lung adenocarcinoma cells (A549) exposed to DX.
Effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids on vincristine-resistance in human neuroblastoma cells.
TLDR
Results indicate that PUFAs partially alleviate the VCR-resistance in human neuroblastoma cells, not directly acting on VCR -resistance mechanism(s).
The anti-tumor drug 2-hydroxyoleic acid (Minerval) stimulates signaling and retrograde transport
TLDR
Treatment with OHOA led to a rapid release of intracellular calcium and activation of multiple signaling pathways in HeLa cells, including the PI3K-AKT1-MTOR pathway and several MAP kinases, in a process independent of the EGFR.
