Article Synopsis
- Acute inflammation can enhance tumor growth in melanoma cells through an inflammatory pathway involving leukotriene B, and some treatments can reduce tumor development.
- In an experiment with mice, different oil treatments (omega-3-rich fish oil, omega-6-rich soybean oil, and a combination) were administered alongside melanoma cells to observe their effects on tumor growth.
- The combined oil treatment significantly reduced melanoma growth and specific inflammatory mediators while increasing IL-10 levels, highlighting that using both oils together is more effective than using them individually.
