Abstract

The article presents a study on the association of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA) and risk for colorectal cancer among Chinese women. It examined dietary fatty acid consumption which was derived from food frequency questionnaires. Results show a trend on the increase of n-6 to n-3 PUFA ratio and production increase of prostaglandin based on the measurement of urinary PGE2 metabolites. The study suggests that ratio of n-6 to n-3 PUFA can be associated with colorectal cancer risk.
