The laboratory experiments showed that omega-6 linoleic acid increased mTORC1 activity 2-3 fold in triple-negative breast cancer cells but had no effect on hormone receptor-positive cells.

They looked at the ability of omega-6 fatty acids—particularly linoleic acid, the dominant one in the Western diet—to drive an important, nutrient-sensing growth pathway called the mTORC1 pathway.

Omega-6 linoleic acid is a diet-derived nutrient that is considered essential in mammals for supporting multiple bodily processes. However, the abundance of this fat in ‘Western-style’ diets has ...
