There is a correlation between the enzyme molecules of broken omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids and the survival rate of patients with colorectal cancer

Recently, a report was published in British Journal of In the study report on cancer, researchers from the University of Aberdeen found that if the concentration of enzyme molecules that can break omega-3 fatty acids is high, it is often directly related to the increase of survival rate of patients with colorectal cancer This study for the first time clarified the relationship between the enzyme molecules that can break omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids and survival rate of patients with colorectal cancer In this paper, the researchers analyzed the tumor tissue of patients with colorectal cancer (http:// measured the level of enzymes metabolizing omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in tumor tissue, and analyzed the correlation with the survival rate of patients with colorectal cancer The results showed that the high ratio of enzymes to metabolize omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (omega-3 / omega-6) was directly related to the decrease of tumor spread rate and the improvement of survival rate of patients Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids were polyunsaturated fatty acids, which were considered to be beneficial to human health (http:// In this study, we explored the enzymes responsible for the breakdown of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and elucidated the relationship between these enzymes and the survival of patients with colorectal cancer Researcher Graeme Professor Murray said that the living conditions of patients with colorectal cancer often change greatly, and different patients often respond differently to the treatment We don't know why some patients can respond effectively to the treatment, while some patients can't respond That's why we carried out this study, because the molecules or metabolites after omega-3 fatty acid fragmentation can inhibit it The researchers speculate that with the increase of omega-3 fatty acids broken, the metabolites of omega-3 fatty acids will increase accordingly, which will effectively inhibit the spread of tumor The lower the risk of tumor spread, the better the prognosis of patients; conversely, if the ratio of omega-6 fatty acid metabolizing enzyme to omega-3 fatty acid metabolizing enzyme is higher (omega-6 / omega-3), the worse the prognosis of patients In previous studies, the relationship between these two enzymes (metabolism enzymes of omega-3 and omega-6) and the survival rate of patients with colorectal cancer is not clear to researchers This study clarifies this, and at the same time, researchers find a potential pathway to help effectively improve the survival rate of patients with colorectal cancer.
