5,6,11,12,17,18-Hexahydrocyclonona[1,2-b:4,5-b*:7,8-b**]triindole (CTr) is a major digestive product of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) from Brassica vegetables and exhibits strong estrogenic activities. CTr increases proliferation of estrogen-dependent breast tumor cells, binds with strong affinity for the
The mechanism of action of the anti-estrogen indole-3-carbinol (I3C), present in cruciferous vegetables, is being examined in our laboratory with a view to promote the use of this naturally occurring chemopreventive as an alternative to synthetic anti-estrogens in human breast cancer. Our previous
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a dietary compound found in cruciferous vegetables, induces a robust inhibition of CDK2 specific kinase activity as part of a G1 cell cycle arrest of human breast cancer cells. Treatment with I3C causes a significant shift in the size distribution of the CDK2 protein complex
We previously established that Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C), a natural hydrolysis product of glucobrassicin in cruciferous vegetables, arrests the proliferation of estrogen-dependent human breast cancer cells and induces protein degradation of Estrogen Receptor-alpha (ERα). We demonstrate in human MCF-7
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a dietary chemopreventive compound, induces cell death in human breast cancer cells by modulating activities of Src and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The effect of I3C on NF-kappaB, constitutively activated in breast cancer cells, was investigated. Nuclear
Sixty women at increased risk for breast cancer were enrolled in a placebo-controlled, double-blind dose-ranging chemoprevention study of indole-3-carbinol (I3C). Fifty-seven of these women with a mean age of 47 years (range 22-74) completed the study. Each woman took a placebo capsule or an I3C
OBJECTIVE
The indole-3-carbinol cyclic tetrameric derivative (CTet) inhibits breast cancer cell proliferation by endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy-related cell death induction, AKT/PKB (protein kinase B) activity inhibition and p53-independent overexpression of cyclin-dependent kinase
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a compound occurring naturally in cruciferous vegetables and has been indicated as a promising agent in preventing breast cancer development and progression. In the present study we have investigated the effect of I3C on the cell migration and invasion behavior in estrogen
Despite significant advances in treatment, breast cancer is still the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women in the United States. Therefore, significant efforts are being given to develop novel strategies for the prevention of breast cancer in recent years. Our laboratory and others
We have identified a new target for the chemopreventive dietary agent indole-3-carbinol (13C) in the antiapoptotic signaling pathway involving phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase and protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt. 13C inhibited phosphorylation and activation of PKB in the tumor-derived breast cell line MDA
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a major indole metabolite in cruciferous vegetables, has been shown to inhibit invasion of breast cancer cells. This study addressed the effect of I3C on the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and clarified the underlying mechanism. Migration, invasion, and MMP-2
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a phytochemical derived from cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and Brussels sprouts, has potent antiproliferative effects in human breast cancer cells and has been shown to decrease metastatic spread of tumors in experimental animals. Using chemotaxis and
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a natural autolysis product of a gluccosinolate present in Brassica vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage, has anti-proliferative and anti-estrogenic activities in human breast cancer cells. A new and significantly more potent I3C analogue, 1-benzyl-I3C was synthesized,
The outcome in patients with breast cancer is not satisfactory to date, although new chemotherapy regimens have been introduced in clinics. Therefore, novel approaches are required for better management of patients with breast cancer. In this study, we tested the cytotoxic activity of a new
Estrogen-responsive breast cancer cells, such as MCF7 and T47D cells, express both estrogen receptor (ER)-alpha (ERalpha) and ERbeta. Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) strongly down-regulated ERalpha protein and transcript levels, without altering the level of ERbeta protein, in both cell lines. In cells
