Addition of doxorubicin to DHA further increased the glutathione level, indicative of the generation of an oxidative stress.
DHA elicited by itself a 3.7-fold malondialdehyde level increase, additive to that induced by doxorubicin.
In MDA-MB-231, doxorubicin efficacy enhancement by DHA was linked to an increase in malondialdehyde level, a final product of lipid peroxidation.

Among all polyunsaturated fatty acids tested, docosahexaenoic acid DHA , 22:6n‐3) was the most potent in increasing doxorubicin cytotoxicity: cell viability decreased from 54% in the presence of 10−7 M doxorubicin alone to 21% when cells were incubated with doxorubicin and DHA.
