Seems to still be inconclusive:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29315549/ Several meta-analyses have attempted to determine the relationships between intake of α-linolenic acid (ALA) and prostate cancer, but results were inconclusive.

By the way, when making an argument by citing a lot of sources the reader is often inclined to think that you're not being unbiased in the selection of sources.


Is the size of the effect in any of these studies stated in your comments? I skimmed them but didn't see what I was looking for.

Or via non-paywalled links?

Thanks.

...the addition of 3% ethyl linoleate (an ethyl ester of a polyunsaturated fatty acid) increased the tumor yield to about twice that in rats fed either the high-saturated fat diet or a low-fat diet. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3476922

...animals fed HF diets rich in linoleic acid, such as safflower and corn oil, exhibited increased incidence and decreased latent period compared with...animals fed HF diets rich in oleic acid (olive oil) or medium-chain saturated fatty acids (coconut oil). https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/416226

The differences in tumor incidence suggest that carcinogenesis was enhanced by the polyunsaturated fat diet during the promotion stage of carcinogenesis. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6488161

...they suggest an association between promotion of mammary cancer and elevated levels of linoleic acid in serum lipids. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2979798

These results suggest that a diet high in unsaturated fat alone, or in combination with 4% cholestyramine, promotes DMBA-induced mammary cancer in Wistar rats. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26091908

Groups of animals fed the corn oil-enriched diet showed the highest percentage of tumor-bearing animals, significantly different in comparison with control and HOO groups. Total number of tumors was increased... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6583457

...effect of dietary corn oil (CO), safflower oil (SO), olive oil (OO), coconut oil (CC), and medium-chain triglycerides (MCT)...The incidence of colon tumors was increased in rats fed diets containing high-CO and high-SO...whereas the diets containing high OO, CC, or MCT had no promoting effect on colon tumor incidence. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6778606

...an increase in fat intake was accompanied by an increased tumor incidence when corn oil was used in the diets. A high saturated fat ration, on the other hand, was much less effective in this respect. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9066676

The promotive tumorigenic effects of the other high-fat diets were associated with their high levels of some polyunsaturated fatty acids... https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1751-1097....

Mice fed 20% saturated fat were almost completely protected from UV tumorigenesis when compared with mice fed 20% polyunsaturated fat. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8973605

...we found an inverse association between SF content and tumor burden...at least in male mice; there was a decrease in mortality in mice consuming the highest concentration of SFAs. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7214328

Increased tumor incidence and decreased time to tumor were observed when increasing levels of linoleate (18:2)...Increasing levels of stearate were associated with decreased tumor incidence and increased time to tumor. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1732055

A positive correlation between level of dietary LA and mammary tumor incidence was observed https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6064952

Enhancement of mammary carcinogenesis in the high-corn oil diet group is detectable in most of the parameters studied. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8317898/
