BACKGROUND Pancreatic cancer is serious and rapidly progressing condition. Little is known about the role of diet in etiology of pancreatic cancer. The study focused on the role of selected dietary factors related to pancreatic cancer. METHODS The case-control study was performed in the Czech

BACKGROUND In the Multiethnic Cohort (MEC) study, we showed inverse associations between flavonols and pancreatic cancer risk. OBJECTIVE We aimed to define a food pattern associated with intakes of quercetin, kaempferol, and myricetin; to examine the association of that pattern with pancreatic

Food-derived plant microRNAs are suggested to control human genes by "cross-kingdom" regulation. We examined microRNAs in sprouts from Brassica rapa sylvestris, known as broccoletti, which are widely used as sulforaphane supplements, and assessed their influence on pancreatic

BACKGROUND Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is one of the most aggressive malignancies with marked resistance to chemo- and radiotherapy. PDA-cancer stem cells (CSCs) are not targeted by current therapies and may be a reason for poor prognosis. Studies indicate that diets rich in cabbage,

Studies were conducted to evaluate the ability of dietary dried cabbage supplements to inhibit pancreatic carcinogenesis in hamsters and skin tumorigenesis in mice. Pancreatic cancer was induced by treatment with 40 mg/kg body wt N-nitrosobis-(2-oxopropyl)amine (BOP). Cabbage was fed from before

This study investigated the anticancer effects of kimchi prepared using the standard Baechu cabbage and Amtak Baechu cabbage; salting was achieved by either the dry salt treatment or brine solution. Four different kimchi samples were prepared for this study: (1) the standard Baechu cabbage and dry
