Change in apoptotic markers with EPA:DHA mixtures in human BC cells.

Citation Cell Line Concentration of EPA or DHA (µM) Assay Exposure (Hours) Effect on Markers of Apoptosis *
Schley, Jijon, Robinson and Field [29] MDA-MB-231 60 EPA + 40 DHA Caspase Detection Kit 72 ↑29% activated caspases
45 EPA + 30 DHA + 75 LA ↑22% activated caspases

EPA = eicosapentaenoic acid, DHA = docosahexaenoic acid; LA = linoleic acid; “↑” denotes significant increase (p < 0.05); “%” = percent change from control condition; * Relative to control condition.
