Schematic summary of the death signaling pathways initiated by the FFAE of krill oil in DLD-1 and HT-29 cells. The FFAE of krill oil and a combination of EPA/DHA exert their effects on cancer cells by changing the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). That results in the activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3 and lead to nuclear DNA damage hence possible apoptosis of cancer cells
