Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the relationship between specific lipid metabolites and colorectal cancer risk using data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC), comparing 1,591 colorectal cancer cases with matched controls.
- - Out of 97 lipid metabolites analyzed, 24 showed an inverse association with colon cancer risk, notably hydroxysphingomyelin (SM (OH)) C22:2 and acylakyl-phosphatidylcholine (PC ae) C34:3, which remained significant even after adjustments.
- - The findings suggest that higher pre-diagnostic levels of certain lipids may be linked to a lower risk of developing colorectal cancer, warranting further research to confirm these associations.
High-fat diets have been associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, and the role of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) has been reported to vary based on the length of PUFAs. We explored the association between dietary omega-6 and omega-3 PUFAs intake and CRC. We analyzed 865 CRC patients and 3206 controls from a case-control study of Iran (IROPICAN study).

Methods: The dietary intake of 60 individual FAs was estimated using centre-specific validated dietary questionnaires. Plasma PL FA concentrations of these FAs were measured in non-fasting venous plasma samples in nested case-control studies within the EPIC cohort ( = 4923, using only non-cases).

However, evidence on the role of specific dietary factors is limited. We investigated associations between dietary fatty acids and endometrial cancer risk in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC).
