متن کاملPossible mechanisms relating diet and risk of colon cancer.
Two recent developments in cancer epidemiology and experimental carcinogenesis provide the basis for two possible mechanisms relating diet and colon cancer risk. The first development is the accumulating epidemiological evidence for an association between insulin resistance and colonic adenomas and cancers. This evidence suggests the following mechanism: the consumption of excess dietary energy...
متن کاملMethylenetetrahydrofolate reductase, diet, and risk of colon cancer.
Individuals with different forms of the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene, carriers of the C677T mutation versus wild type, show differences in enzyme levels; these differences have been hypothesized to be related to DNA methylation and, perhaps, to the nucleotide pool size. Using data from an incident case-control study, we evaluated the combined effect of dietary intake of...
متن کاملAmerican ginseng suppresses Western diet-promoted tumorigenesis in model of inflammation-associated colon cancer: role of EGFR
BACKGROUND Western diets increase colon cancer risk. Epidemiological evidence and experimental studies suggest that ginseng can inhibit colon cancer development. In this study we asked if ginseng could inhibit Western diet (20% fat) promoted colonic tumorigenesis and if compound K, a microbial metabolite of ginseng could suppress colon cancer xenograft growth. METHODS Mice were initiated with...
متن کاملCentral Obesity Diet, Vitamin D, Calcium, & Colon Cancer
Although generalized obesity is a risk factor for all of the life-threatening diseases that I have described, the accumulation of excess body fat within and around the abdomen (central obesity) appears to be linked with an especially high risk of obesity-associated illnesses. Now, a new research study, just published in the journal Neurology, suggests that dementia may also be more common among...
