A recent paper reported that DHA promotes the cell apoptosis of PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cells by inducing DNA fragmentation, activating caspase-3, and increasing the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 via downregulating STAT3/nuclear factor (NF)-κB/cyclin D1 signaling [29]. This evidence concerns the gene STAT3 and familial pancreatic carcinoma.
