In an extension of our earlier studies, we examined the inhibitory effects of N-acetyl-S-(N-2-phenethylthiocarbamoyl)-l-cysteine (PEITC-NAC), myo-inositol (MI) and indole-3-carbinol (I3C) or 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM), alone and in combination, on 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) has anti-tumor effects in various cancer cell lines. However, the anti-tumor effect of I3C on human lung cancers has been rarely reported. We investigated the anti-tumor effects and its mechanism of I3C on human lung carcinoma A549 cell line. Treatment of the A549 cells with
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) conjugates are phytochemicals expressed in brassica vegetables and have been associated with the anticancer activities of vegetable consumption. I3C and its metabolite bis(3'-indolyl)methane (DIM) induce overlapping and unique responses in multiple cancer cell lines and
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
BACKGROUND
Cruciferous vegetable consumption is inversely related to the incidence of prostate cancer. We examined the effect of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and of sulforaphane (constituents of cruciferous vegetables) on cell proliferation of a PC-3 prostate cancer cell line, in order to observe if an
Dietary indole-3-carbinol (I3C) has clinical benefits for both cervical cancer and laryngeal papillomatosis, and causes apoptosis of breast cancer cells in vitro. We asked whether I3C and its major acid-catalyzed condensation product diindolylmethane (DIM), which is produced in the stomach after
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and phenobarbital (PB) are cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A and CYP2B inducers, respectively, and have liver tumor-promoting effects in rats. In this study, we investigated the modifying effects on tumor promotion by I3C and PB co-administration. Six-week-old male F344 rats received
Prostate cancer (PC) is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy for men in Western countries. Research showed that cruciferous vegetables containing indole derivatives were involved in cancer prevention. This study was designed to investigate the effect of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) in cell lines and on
BACKGROUND
Many tumours undergo disregulation of polyamine homeostasis and upregulation of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity, which can promote carcinogenesis. In animal models of colon carcinogenesis, inhibition of ODC activity by difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) has been shown to reduce the
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
The primary aim of this study was to determine whether combination of the chemopreventive agent indole-3-carbinol (I3C) with oxaliplatin would decrease proliferative index and invasive potential of human colorectal tumour cells. Combination of the agents resulted in a 170-fold decrease in
The apoptotic effects of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) were exhibited in many human cancer cells. However, the apoptotic effects of I3C on nasopharyngeal cancer cells were still unknown. In this study, we first examined the potential effects of I3C on the induction of apoptosis in human nasopharyngeal
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
This study describes the disposition and excretion of indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a natural dietary tumor modulator and candidate chemopreventive agent, in male Fisher 344 rats after continuous dietary or a single oral administration. Steady-state urinary and fecal excretion were attained 40 and 112
