Arachidonic Acids

01/01/2013 - "The roles of arachidonic acids and its metabolites in cancer biology have recently attracted great attentions. "
07/01/1997 - "In rats given free access to food, tumor growth was directly dependent on the plasma concentrations of linoleic (P < 0.001) and arachidonic acids (P = 0.04). "
05/01/1987 - "Significant alterations in the relative concentrations of oleic and arachidonic acids were found after storage at +4 degrees C for 24 h, which has important implications in the study of changes in erythrocyte fatty acids in cancer and diabetes."
10/01/2010 - "To evaluate the association between fatty acid (alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), EPA, DHA, palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic and arachidonic acids) intake and prospective weight change in the Heidelberg cohort of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition. "
06/01/1988 - "Free fatty acid concentrations were increased about five times in hyperlipemic plasma and perfusion of tumors with normolipemic blood containing added linoleic and arachidonic acids increased [3H]thymidine incorporation. "

12/01/2008 - "In our earlier case-control study, colorectal cancer risk showed positive relationships with erythrocyte membrane compositions of palmitic and oleic acids, but negative links with linoleic and arachidonic acids. "
12/01/2008 - "The present study suggests that palmitic, oleic, and arachidonic acids play key roles in intestinal polyp formation, and demonstrates reduced erythrocyte arachidonic acid values of Min mice, in line with our previous findings for patients with sporadic colorectal cancers."
03/30/2011 - "Cumulative evidence shows that eicosanoids such as prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxanes and hydroxy eicosatetraenoic acids play an important role in associating inflammation with human colorectal cancer (CRC). "
03/01/2007 - "Lipoxygenases (LOX) are major enzymes that metabolize arachidonic acid to hydroxyl-eicosatetraenoic acids and leukotrienes, which have been implicated in inflammation and colorectal cancer risk. "

07/01/2002 - "As main current topics in pediatric nutrition we have considered the results of the continuing research on the long term consequences of fetal malnutrition and intra-uterine growth retardation with the concept of metabolic imprinting leading to chronic disease in adulthood, the progresses of knowledge in the fields of iron metabolism and regulatory mechanisms of satiety, hunger and energetic balance, a better determination of recommended docosahexanoic and arachidonic acids intake in the first months of life for premature and term infants, and the studies on probiotics and prebiotics utilization for preventive and curative purposes. "

07/01/2005 - "Most studies based either on a dietary questionnaire or on biomarkers, did not find any association of total, saturated or monounsaturated fatty acid, as well as of linoleic or arachidonic acids, with prostate cancer risk, after adjustment for total energy intake. "

12/01/2008 - "In Min mice, moreover, oleic and arachidonic acids were 1.78 and 1.43 times higher, respectively, in intestinal polyps than in paired normal mucosa (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01, respectively), but linoleic acid was 31.9% lower (P < 0.001). "
12/01/2008 - "The present study suggests that palmitic, oleic, and arachidonic acids play key roles in intestinal polyp formation, and demonstrates reduced erythrocyte arachidonic acid values of Min mice, in line with our previous findings for patients with sporadic colorectal cancers."
