A comparative study of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant potential has been made in human uterus and uterine tumor. Two types of uterine tumor used are: tumor (I), a fibroid which is the commonest benign solid tumor in uterus and tumor (II), an adenomyoma. Tumor microsomes are less susceptible to
Numerous studies have suggested that the lifetime dose of unopposed estrogen is a significant risk factor for breast and uterine cancer. Estradiol (E2) plays a putative role as a tumor promoter through interaction with estrogen receptors but can also be metabolized to redox active and/or mutagenic
Chloroethane was observed in a chronic cancer bioassay to be a mouse-specific uterine carcinogen at a single high inhaled concentration (15,000 ppm). Although high incidence occurred in the female mouse (86%), no uterine tumor increases were observed in female rats. Chloroethane is a weak alkylating
Females live longer than males in many species, including humans. We have traced a possible explanation for this phenomenon to the beneficial action of estrogens, which bind to estrogen receptors and increase the expression of longevity-associated genes, including those encoding the antioxidant
Cervical cancer is one of the grave uterine tumors which leads to death in women worldwide. Troxerutin (TRX) as a bioflavonoid compound has many pharmacological effects such as anti-neoplastic, radioprotective, and anti-cancer. The present study was designed to examine the cytotoxic effect of TRX on
