BACKGROUND
Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent types of cancer and a leading cause of death in women.
METHODS
An experimental model of breast cancer was induced in female albino rats using single intragastric dose of 7, 12 dimethylbenz (α) anthracene (DMBA) in sesame oil (50 mg/kg b.wt). Four
This study was to demonstrate by histological grading whether soy protein protects against dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) -induced breast tumors in female rats. At 25 days of age, rats were fed diets containing either casein or soy protein. After 25 days on diets, a single dose of DMBA in sesame
Breast cancer is a global public health problem where it is the second most prevalent cancer. Historical cancer treatment with graviola has been reported. This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of graviola on 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced rat breast cancer. Fifty
BACKGROUND
7,12-dimethylbenz [a] anthracene (DMBA) administration to pubertal rats causes breast tumors and inhibits glutathione (GSH) production. Our previous results have established that oral glutamine (GLN) supplementation significantly reduced tumor development, restored the depressed GSH

In traditional medicine, Ficus carica (also known as fig) latex is recognized as a remedy with various therapeutic effects. Recently, in vitro studies have reported the anticancer effect of this latex on cancer cell lines. This study evaluated the effect of this latex on breast cancer
The hormone-dependent 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene rat mammary tumor has been shown to regress when administered pharmacological doses of testosterone propionate. Tumor regression was correlated with estrogen receptor before and 15 to 20 days following testosterone therapy. A dramatic decline of
7,12-Dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) depletes ovarian follicles and induces DNA damage in extra-ovarian tissues, thus, we investigated ovarian DMBA-induced DNA damage. Additionally, since obesity is associated with increased offspring birth defect incidence, we hypothesized that a DMBA-induced DNA
In this report we examined the effect of tamoxifen upon the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system. Ovariectomized mice were subjected to one of the following treatments: two subcutaneous injections administered on successive days of the sesame oil vehicle (control), estradiol benzoate (EB-10
BACKGROUND
A single dose of oral 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) in pubertal rats causes breast tumors by 11 weeks and is associated with ablation of the normal gut glutathione (GSH) production for up to 4 weeks. We hypothesized that glutamine (GLN), known to restore the gut GSH production
Many popular dietary supplements are enriched in polyphenols such as the soy isoflavones, tea catechins, and resveratrol (from grape skins), each of which has been shown to have chemopreventive activity in cellular models of cancer. The proanthocyanidins, which are oligomers of the catechins, are
We have investigated mammary gland tissues of female rats treated with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene in sesame oil by a near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy finding that the DNA and water contents in the cancerous tissues were larger than those in the normal tissues but that the lipid content in the
Expression of peripheral benzodiazepine receptors (PBR) has been found in every tissue examined; however, it is most abundant in steroid-producing tissues. Although the primary function of PBR is the regulation of steroidogenesis, its existence in nonsteroidogenic tissues as well as in other
OBJECTIVE
As a rose geranium in sesame oil spray product has been anecdotally noted to improve nasal vestibulitis symptoms, this study was designed to assess whether patients with nasal vestibulitis associated with cancer-directed therapy experienced symptomatic improvements from
We sought to evaluate the molecular markers involved in breast tumorigenesis in a rat model that mimics many essential elements of human breast cancer. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into two groups. Animals in group 1 were given a single dose of 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) (20
Prenatal exposure to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) was investigated for its potential to predispose to breast cancer. Analysis of mammary gland differentiation and cell proliferation were used as biomarkers. Timed pregnant Sprague-Dawley CD rats were gavaged with 1 microg TCDD/kg on day
