Figure 3From: Mammary tumour development is dose-dependently inhibited by n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the MMTV-neu(ndl)-YD5 transgenic mouse modelThe average number of tumours palpitated per dietary intervention throughout the course of the study in mice fed a 0% n-3 PUFA diet (n = 16), 3% n-3 PUFA diet (n = 10), and 9% n-3 PUFA diet (n = 11). The asterisk indicates that mice fed a 9% n-3 PUFA diet had a significant reduction in tumour multiplicity in comparison to mice fed either of the other diets as determined by a repeated measures analysis (p < 0.05).Back to article page
