The oral administration of indole-3-carbinol (IC), present in cabbage and other members of the Cruciferae family, to female rats almost doubled their ability to convert estradiol to catechol estrogens in the liver. This was determined by the release of 3H from C-2 of the estrogen and also by
BACKGROUND
The oxidative metabolism of estrogens in humans is mediated primarily by cytochrome P450, many isoenzymes of which are inducible by dietary and pharmacologic agents. One major pathway, 2-hydroxylation, is induced by dietary indole-3-carbinol (I3C), which is present in cruciferous
Elastase is the only currently identified target protein for indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a naturally occurring hydrolysis product of glucobrassicin in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts that induces a cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of human breast cancer cells. In
The consumption of cruciferous vegetables (the Family of Cruciferae) such as cabbage, broccoli and Brussels sprouts has been shown to have cancer chemopreventive effects in humans and experimental animals. Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), one component of cruciferous vegetables, has been shown to exert
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,
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a compound found naturally as a glucosinolate in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage, has been shown to modulate the carcinogenic process in a number of animal species. The lack of detailed information on the disposition of I3C in vivo provided the main
A number of recent studies have described inhibitor-mediated reductions in the covalent DNA binding and tumorigenicity of various carcinogens, in species such as rats, mice and rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). Since inhibitory effects have, in most cases, been reported after testing at one
Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed on purified diets supplemented with 50-500 ppm indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a compound present in cruciferous vegetables, or with 25% Brussels sprouts (Brassica oleracea) for 10 days after a 1-wk equilibration on a purified diet. Cytosolic and microsomal fractions were
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
The effect of raw cabbage and sauerkraut juices on the expression and activity of phase II enzymes, glutathione S-transferase (GST) and NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), in the rat liver and kidney was compared with that of two commercially available products of glucosinolate degradation:
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of white cabbage and sauerkraut juices of different origin and indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and diindolylmethane (DIM) on expression of CYP19 gene encoding aromatase, the key enzyme of estrogen synthesis.
METHODS
Human breast cell lines (MCF7,
The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of the pasteurization process on the content of ascorbigen, indole-3-carbinol, indole-3-acetonitrile, and 3,3'-diindolylmethane in fermented cabbage. Pasteurization was run at a temperature of 80 °C for 5-30 min. Significant changes were only
This study investigated the effect of raw cabbage and sauerkraut juices on the activity and expression of CYP1A1, 1A2, 1B1 and 2B in Wistar rat liver and kidney. The results were compared with those of two commercially available products of glucosinolates degradation: indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a potential anticancer substance, can be found in cruciferous (cabbage family) vegetables, mainly cauliflower and Chinese cabbage. However, the bioactivity of I3C on the apoptotic effects of murine leukemia WEHI-3 cells and promotion of immune responses in leukemia mice
BACKGROUND
Multiple factors are known to contribute to the development of cancer and numerous agents have been shown to confer some protection. Diets high in vegetables, especially cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage etc.) provide such protection.
OBJECTIVE
To define the
