Effect of Oral Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) Supplementation on DHA Levels and Omega-3 Index in Red Blood Cell Membranes of Breast Cancer Patients

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Rationale: Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in cell membrane may influence breast cancer (BC) patients' prognosis, affecting tumor cells sensitivity to chemo- and radio-therapy and likely modulating inflammation.

Predicting the effects of supplemental EPA and DHA on the omega-3 index [PDF]

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2019
Supplemental long-chain omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids (EPA and DHA) raise erythrocyte EPA + DHA [omega-3 index (O3I)] concentrations, but the magnitude or variability of this effect is unclear.The purpose of this study was to model the effects of supplemental EPA + DHA on the O3I.Deidentified data from 1422 individuals from 14 published n-3 intervention ...
