Garlic and Cruciferae are associated with reduced risks of several human cancers, and some of their constituents are anticarcinogenic in animals. Here we studied inhibition of in vitro metabolism of the rat esophageal carcinogen methyl-n-pentylnitrosamine (MPN) by garlic-derived allyl sulfides and

A range of potential chemoprotective agents, most of them natural dietary constituents, has been examined for ability to modulate both phase I (cytochrome P450 1A1, 1A2, 2B1/2, 2C11, 2E1, 3A, 4A) and phase II drug metabolizing enzymes (glutathione S-transferases, in particular subunits Yc2 and P,

Epidemiological studies continue to support the premise that diets rich in fruits and vegetables may offer protection against cancer of various anatomic sites. This correlation is quite persuasive for vegetables including ALLIUM (e. g., garlic) and cruciferous (e. g., broccoli and watercress)

There is an increasing evidence that dietary phytochemicals may play important roles as chemopreventive or chemotherapeutic agents in prevention of many diseases, including tumors. The purpose of this study was to examine antimutagenic effects and effect on the immune response of representative

Presystemic metabolism occurring in the intestinal epithelium and/or liver is frequently an important determinant of drug bioavailability after oral administration. Several factors are potentially involved in such a first-pass effect and their modulation may significantly contribute to intra- and
