Cancer is a class of diseases in which a group of cells growing and multiplying disorderly and uncontrollably in our body.
Most cases of cancer begin in the cells on the surface of the inner lining tissues of the organ or gland. At the early stage, most cancers are asymptomatic.
However, at the advanced stage, most cancers not can induce common symptoms such as gastrointestinal discomforts, unintended weight loss, loss of appetite and fatigue but also localized symptoms depending on the affected tissues and organs.

Leukemia is a condition of an abnormal increase of white blood cells produced by the bone marrow and/or the lymphatic system. Depending on the malignant granulocytes or lymphocytes, leukemia is classified into myelogenous or lymphoblastic leukemia.
Bone marrow is the soft tissue inside the hollow center of the major bone. including spine, pelvis, underarm, leg. etc.
Myeloid Leukemia can be classified into acute and chronic
* Acute myeloid leukemia
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer of myelogenous lining cause of the rapid growth of abnormal granulocytes accumulated in the bone marrow, interfering with the normal blood cells. In AML, granulocytes appear immature in the bloodstream.
* Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a medical condition associated with the overgrowth of immature cells started in the blood-forming cells of the bone marrow.
In other words, compared to normal cells that will die after a limited cell division, chronic myeloid leukemia cells continue to divide with no meaning of dying or stopping, leading to proliferation that affects other healthy cells in the bone marrow.
More precisely, CML accounts for 15% of all cases of leukemia diagnosed each year. In other words, the lifetime risk of CML in the US is 1 person in 526.
The 5-year survival rate of patients treated with chemo drug imatinib (Gleevec®) including all stages of CML is 90%.
Omega-3 fatty acids are phytochemicals in the class of lipids, found abundantly in deepsea fisk, dark-green leafy vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, etc.
The three main components of Omega-3 fatty acids are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of cancer, researchers investigated the effects of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20:5), a polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid on myeloid leukemia.
On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of cancer, researchers investigated the effects of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20:5), a polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid on myeloid leukemia.
* EPA showed a decrease in the leukemia stem cells (LSC) population and reduced the abnormal enlargement of the spleen and above the normal range in the blood associated with chronic myelogenous leukemia progression, compared to mice treated with oleic acid diet.
* EPA exerted a similar effect on CML mice carrying the T315I mutation (in BCR-ABL).
And, "he results support a chemopreventive role for EPA in myeloid leukemia, which is dependent on the ability to efficiently convert EPA to....Δ(12)-PGJ3".
Taken altogether, Omega-3 fatty acids processed abundantly eicosapentaenoic acid may be considered a functional food for the treatment of myeloid leukemia, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of Omega-3 fatty acids in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.
