{"title":"Diet intervention for modifying cancer risk.","authors":"D F Birt,&nbsp;J C Pelling,&nbsp;S Nair,&nbsp;D Lepley","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Considerable evidence suggests that dietary differences between populations account for a significant proportion of the variation in cancer occurrence in different parts of the world. A major problem has been identifying the particular dietary components which predispose or protect individuals against cancer. For example, the high rates of breast and colon cancer in the United States have been associated with numerous dietary patterns including high fat, high dietary energy, and low fruit and vegetable intakes. Our laboratories have attempted to identify mechanisms whereby diet may modify cancer and it is anticipated that future studies will determine which of these potential mechanisms may be relevant in humans. A promising lead in understanding the mechanism of high dietary fat/high dietary energy promotion of cancer was the impact of these diets on cellular protein kinase C (PKC). PKC is important in cellular signaling events which are critical to tumor promotion. Our studies demonstrated increased PKC activity and/or protein expression observed in epidermis and pancreatic epithelial cells of rodents fed high fat/energy diets. The inverse association between cancer at a number of sites and fruit and vegetable intake may be due to both micronutrient and non-nutrient components of fruits and vegetables. We have studied the prevention of skin tumor promotion by apigenin, a plant flavonoid. Apigenin may block several points in the process of tumor promotion, including inhibiting kinases, reducing transcription factors and regulating cell cycle. The complexity of our diets and the multitude of potential dietary effects which may be important in cancer development make this a fertile area for future study.</p>","PeriodicalId":20686,"journal":{"name":"Progress in clinical and biological research","volume":"395 ","pages":"223-34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19861492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Hormonal and environmental factors affecting cell proliferation and neoplasia in the mammary gland.","authors":"S M Snedeker,&nbsp;R P Diaugustine","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Although estrogens have been identified as key endocrine hormones in the control of early mitogenesis and development in the mammary gland, local control of cell proliferation during ductal morphogenesis may be regulated by polypeptides such as TGF-alpha or TGF-beta. Many breast tumors are estrogen dependent, and some breast tumor cell lines are known to produce TGF-alpha, suggesting that the mitogenic pathways controlling early normal mammary growth and the growth of some breast tumors may be similar. While progesterone does not appear to be important in the early program of ductal growth, progesterone and estrogen are necessary for the cyclic proliferation of mammary ductal cells that occurs during the menstrual cycle, and for lobuloalveolar growth during pregnancy. Since increased cell division enhances the chances for the formation of a malignant phenotype in the breast, exogenous hormones containing estrogen alone or estrogen and progesterone may increase breast cancer risk. While DES is no longer prescribed to prevent abortions, it demonstrates that high doses of an estrogen during a period of mammary proliferation can affect breast cancer risk. Whether the addition of progestogens to estrogen replacement therapy enhances breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women remains an unanswered question because of the lack of large, well-controlled prospective studies. There currently is no evidence to indicate that the progestogen-containing subdermal contraceptive Norplant increases breast cancer risk. However, it has not been determined if the elevation of serum estrogens reported in some Norplant users affects breast cancer risk. There is little evidence that combined OCAs enhance breast cancer risk in most women. More research is needed to substantiate the findings that OCA use in young women, especially before a first full-term pregnancy, may enhance breast cancer risk. Animal studies indicate that there are critical periods of susceptibility to chemical carcinogens, since the number and malignancy of tumors are increased when carcinogens are administered to young virgin animals during the proliferative period of ductal morphogenesis. Since the breast appears to be most susceptible to the carcinogenic effects of ionizing radiation during the first decade of life, exposure to other carcinogenic agents during the period of early breast development may be important in determining breast cancer risk. Therefore, more studies are needed to confirm the observation that heavy drinkers and heavy smokers are at higher risk for developing breast cancer when they start smoking or drinking at an early age. The observation that serum and urinary estrogen levels increase with alcohol consumption may provide a basis for the higher risk of developing breast cancer in heavy drinkers. While the restriction of methyxanthine intake may alleviate the symptoms associated with fibrocystic breast disease in some women, there is not enough evidence to suggest tha","PeriodicalId":20686,"journal":{"name":"Progress in clinical and biological research","volume":"394 ","pages":"211-53"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19751743","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
