The association of caffeine intake and postmenopausal breast cancer incidence was assessed among 34,388 Iowa women aged 55-69 years in 1986 and followed through 1990. Caffeine intake was assessed by a food frequency questionnaire. Median caffeine intake was 212 mg/day in women who developed breast
BACKGROUND
Active cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) or myofibroblasts play important roles not only in the development and progression of breast carcinomas, but also in their prognosis and treatment. Therefore, targeting these cells through suppressing their supportive procarcinogenic paracrine
OBJECTIVE
Numerous mechanisms for the effects of coffee, tea and caffeine on the risk of breast cancer have been suggested. Caffeine intake has already been associated with high plasma levels of female hormones, but associations have not been clearly demonstrated in epidemiological
Studies of coffee and tea consumption and caffeine intake as risk factors for breast cancer are inconclusive. We assessed coffee and tea consumption, caffeine intake, and possible confounding factors among 42,099 women from the Swedish Women's Lifestyle and Health study, the participants of which
OBJECTIVE
Coffee, caffeinated tea, and caffeine have been suggested to play a role in breast carcinogenesis or in the promotion or inhibition of tumor growth. Prior epidemiologic evidence has not supported an overall association between consumption of caffeinated beverages and risk of breast cancer,
Molecular targeted therapy by different cell death inducers are recently considered in cancer therapy. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of cisplatin and inositol trisphosphate kinase inhibitor (caffeine) on human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7). The pattern of cell death in MCF-7
The following study was carried out to determine the possibility of caffeine being a promoter of breast cancer development in animals consuming vegetable fat. A controlled study, comparing the time of mammary tumor development and the number of tumors was carried out in Sprague-Dawley rats which had
The potential association of breast cancer and caffeine intake was examined using international aggregate data. Death rates from breast cancer were correlated with caffeine ingestion from tea and coffee sources in 44 countries. By using multiple regression analysis, the authors demonstrated that 85%
Although inhibition of tumor cell growth by genistein is mediated by different types of cell cycle arrest, its regulation of genes related to the cell cycle is not clear. In this study, genistein caused a concentration-dependent growth inhibition in the hormone-independent cell line MDA-MB-435S.
Studies have associated coffee and/or caffeine with human fibrocystic breast disease. Two animal studies have implicated caffeine as a promoter in rat mammary cancer. The current investigation examines the effect of two caffeine doses in ACI rats with and without diethylstilbestrol (DES). Without
The conclusion drawn in a recent paper by Minton and associates (Cancer 1983; 51:1249-1253), that caffeine and an unsaturated fat diet significantly promoted dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA)-induced breast cancer in rats, is based on fallacious statistical reasoning. Minton and associates based
Triple-negative tumor cells, a malignant subtype of breast cancer, lack a biologically targeted therapy. Given its DNA repair inhibiting properties, caffeine has been shown to enhance the effectiveness of specific tumor chemotherapies. In this work, we have investigated the effects of caffeine,
Several different cancer studies have indicated that lymphocyte mutagen sensitivity is a marker of DNA repair deficiency and increased cancer risk. We have used a mutagen sensitivity assay (MSA) measuring gamma-radiation-induced chromosomal aberrations in freshly cultured lymphocytes and assessed
The UK National Case-Control Study Group has examined the relationship between smoking (both own smoking and passive), alcohol consumption and caffeine consumption and the risk of breast cancer. A total of 755 women with breast cancer diagnosed before the age of 36, each with an age-matched general
Breast cancer is the second most common malignancy among women. Ilex paraguariensis A. St. Hil, known as yerba mate, is widely consumed in southern Brazil as a hot infusion drink known as chimarrão. This herb has a complex chemical composition and is rich in antioxidants, which may interfere in the
