Effects of n-3 PUFAs on caspase-8 expression. The determination of the integrity of the procaspase-8 after treatment with DHA (200 μM) and EPA (230 μM) for 72 h was assessed in both cell lines. A: MCF7 cells treated with DHA (200 μM) or EPA (230 μM) for 72 h. B: MDA-MB-231 cells treated with DHA (200 μM) or EPA (230 μM) for 72 h. Semi-quantitative analysis performed by plate scanning. β-actin was used to normalize results of protein content. ** p < 0.01 compared to control cells; n = 3
