phytic acid/neoplasms

Targeted drug delivery to malignant bone lesions remains a challenging task in the treatment of bone tumors. In this article, we reported a naturally occurring phytic acid (PA) with both bone-targeting capability and anticancer activity. The PA-capped platinum nanoparticles showed high affinity to

Soluble adhesion molecules such as soluble intercellular adhesion molecules-1 (sICAM-1) and soluble E-cadherin (sE-cadherin) play important role in tumor invasion and the development of metastasis. It was observed that their concentrations in body fluids of patients with colon cancer were elevated.

Phytic acid (myo-inositol hexaphosphate) is one of the most promising cancer chemopreventive agents. We investigated the mechanism by which phytic acid expresses preventive action to cancer. Phytic acid inhibited the formation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine in cultured cells treated with an

OBJECTIVE Phytic acid, a major constituent of cereals, pulses, and seeds has been advocated as an important antioxidant component of dietary fibre that affords possible protection against colorectal cancer. This is supported by experimental studies showing it has antineoplastic activity in animal

Inositol hexaphosphate (IP6, phytic acid) is a naturally occurring carbohydrate abundantly present in high-fiber diets and it is also contained in almost all mammalian cells. It plays an important role in signal transduction, cell proliferation and differentiation. Some natural substances have been

Phytic acid (IP-6) is a polyphosphorylated carbohydrate with antitumor activity for many kinds of tumors. In this study, we developed a novel method of loading irinotecan (CPT-11) into liposomes using IP-6, and evaluated its antitumor effect on colon tumors in vivo. Liposomal CPT-11 was prepared by

Over the last years phytic acid, a hexaphosphorylated inositol (IP6) has attracted particular attention due to its anti-cancer activity, however, the molecular mechanisms of its action have not been elucidated, as yet. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of phytic acid on the

The present study was designed to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of metal chelator and anticancer drug in the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC). Pellets containing Phytic acid, 5- Fluorouracil (5-FU), Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) PH 101, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) and Barium

Phytic acid (IP6) is an ingredient in cereals and legumes, and limited amounts of this compound are considered to enter the cell and exert anti-cancer effects. These effects have been seen by studying cells treated with around 1-5 mM IP6. However, such a large amount of IP6 chelates metals and

BACKGROUND Phytic acid (PA) has been shown to have positive nutritional benefits. There are also claims that it is able to prevent cancer through its antioxidant capability. This study investigated antioxidant activity and cytotoxic effect of PA extracted from rice bran against selected cancer cell

Experimental as well as epidemiologic studies in human populations provide evidence that consumption of phytochemicals reduces the incidence of degenerative diseases. Green tea (GT) catechins are known for their antioxidative potential. Phytic acid (PA) also acts as a natural antioxidant and may

BACKGROUND Phytic acid (PA) is a polyphosphorylated carbohydrate that can be found in high amounts in most cereals, legumes, nut oil, seeds and soy beans. It has been suggested to play a significant role in inhibition of colorectal cancer. This study was conducted to investigate expression changes

Phytic acid (PA) has been demonstrated to have a potent anticarcinogenic activity against colorectal cancer (CRC). Defects of the intestinal mucosal barrier and inflammation processes are involved in the development and progression of CRC. In the present study, we evaluated the effect of PA on the

BACKGROUND Phytic acid or IP6 has been extensively studied in animals and is being promoted as an anti-cancer agent in health food stores. It is naturally found in legumes, wheat bran, and soy foods. It is believed to be the active ingredient that gives these substances their cancer fighting

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of phytic acid on the human osteosarcoma U20S cells and its mechanisms in vitro. METHODS MTT assay was used to examine the cell proliferation. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to observe the surface ultrastructure of U20S cells. Hoechst 33342 fluorescence
