Breast cancer is the primary cause of cancer death in women. Although current therapies have shown some promise against breast cancer, there is still no effective cure for the majority of patients in the advanced stages of breast cancer. Development of effective agents to slow, reduce, or reverse the incidence of breast cancer in high-risk women is necessary. Chemoprevention of breast cancer by...
متن کاملOrnithine decarboxylase: a promising and exploratory candidate target for natural products in cancer chemoprevention.
Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), the first enzyme in the polyamine biosynthesis, plays an important role in tumor progression, cell proliferation and differentiation. In recent years, ODC has been the subject of intense study among researchers, as a target for anti-cancer therapy and specific inhibitory agents, have the potential to suppress carcinogenesis and find applications in clinical therap...
متن کاملPromising agents for chemoprevention of skin cancer
185 UPDATES AND DEVELOPMENTS IN ONCOLOGY Skin cancer presents a significant public health problem because of its increasing incidence in the United States, Australia, Northern Europe, and other temperate climates around the world.

متن کاملTargeting epigenetic mechanisms: potential of natural products in cancer chemoprevention.
The term epigenetics is defined as heritable changes in gene expression patterns that occur without changes in DNA sequence. Epigenetic changes according to this definition are achieved by methylation of cytosine bases in the DNA and by histone modifications, such as acetylation, methylation or phosphorylation. These modifications play an important role in regulating gene expression and the exi...
متن کاملPromising Compounds From Murraya exotica for Cancer Metastasis Chemoprevention
Most of the present anticancer drugs are highly cytotoxic and focus mainly on killing tumor cells rather than slowing the progress of cancer metastasis. Evidence has been reported that bridges the mechanisms of inflammation and tumor invasion. Therefore, we evaluated the potency in cancer metastasis chemoprevention of compounds and a coumarin extracted from Murraya exotica, which is known for i...
