متن کاملThe Potential Role of Nitric Oxide in Halting Cancer Progression Through Chemoprevention.
Nitric oxide (NO) in general plays a beneficial physiological role as a vasorelaxant and the role of NO is decided by its concentration present in physiological environments. NO either facilitates cancer-promoting characters or act as an anti-cancer agent. The dilemma in this regard still remains unanswered. This review summarizes the recent information on NO and its role in carcinogenesis and ...
متن کاملCombination of chemopreventive agents in nanoparticles for cancer prevention.

Therefore, the use of a combination of agents is an attractive approach for cancer chemoprevention. In this issue of the journal, Prabhu and colleagues examined a combination of aspirin, curcumin, and sulforaphane for the prevention of pancreatic...
متن کاملFoodstuffs for preventing cancer: the preclinical and clinical development of berries.
Laboratory research involving berries is a promising example of food-based cancer prevention. Berries contain many known chemopreventive agents such as anthocyanins and ellagitannins that can be greatly concentrated in freeze-dried berry powders. Based on our program of berry research, this commentary presents the first reported stepwise scheme for the preclinical and clinical development of fo...
