Cruciferous vegetables consumption and the risk of ovarian cancer: a meta-analysis of observational studies
BACKGROUND To quantify the effect of cruciferous vegetable consumption on the incidence of ovarian cancer by meta-analyzing the existing observational studies and provides quantitative and high-level evidence. METHODS A detailed literature search of Medline and EMBASE for all relevant papers published. A meta-analysis was conducted for the association between cruciferous vegetable consumption...
متن کاملCruciferous vegetables and colo-rectal cancer.
Cruciferous vegetables have been studied extensively for their chemoprotective effects. Although they contain many bioactive compounds, the anti-carcinogenic actions of cruciferous vegetables are commonly attributed to their content of glucosinolates. Glucosinolates are relatively biologically inert but can be hydrolysed to a range of bioactive compounds such as isothiocyanates (ITC) and indole...
متن کاملCruciferous vegetable consumption and lung cancer risk: a systematic review.
BACKGROUND Cruciferous vegetables, rich in isothiocyanates, may protect against lung cancer. Glutathione S-transferases are important in metabolizing isothiocyanates; hence, variants in GST genes may modify the association between cruciferous vegetable intake and lung cancer. We carried out a systematic review to characterize the association between cruciferous vegetable intake and lung cancer ...
متن کاملCruciferous vegetables consumption and the risk of female lung cancer: a prospective study and a meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies evaluating the association between cruciferous vegetables (CVs) intake and female lung cancer risk have produced inconsistent results. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study followed 74 914 Chinese women aged 40-70 years who participated in the Shanghai Women's Health Study. CV intake was assessed through a validated food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) at baseline a...
متن کاملGlucosinolates from Cruciferous Vegetables for Cancer Chemoprevention
Prevention and/or protection against chemical carcinogens by phytochemicals present in extensively consumed glucosinolate-containing cruciferous vegetables is of great of interest, as they provide a safe and cost effective means of combating cancer. Extensive epidemiological studies revealed repeatedly an inverse relationship between cruciferous vegetable consumption and the incidence of cancer...
