Black cohosh (Cimicifuga racemosa L.) protects against menadione-induced DNA damage through scavenging of reactive oxygen species: Bioassay-directed isolation and characterization of active principles
(2002)The roots/rhizomes of Cimicifuga racemosa L. (Nutt.) (black cohosh) have traditionally been used to treat menopausal symptoms through an unknown mechanism of action. In an effort to determine if black cohosh had additional ...

Computer-aided detection of breast cancer nuclei
(1997)A computer-aided detection system for tissue cell nuclei in histological sections is introduced and validated as part of the Biopsy Analysis Support System (BASS). Cell nuclei are selectively stained with monoclonal ...

Dietary Soy Isoflavones and Estrone Protect Ovariectomized ERαKO and Wild-Type Mice from Carcinogen-Induced Colon Cancer
(2004)Consumption of soy foods has been weakly associated with reduced colon cancer risk. Colon cancer risk is influenced by estrogen exposure, although the mechanism through which this occurs is not defined. Conversion of ...

Evaluation of estrogenic activity of plant extracts for the potential treatment of menopausal symptoms
(2001)Eight botanical preparations that are commonly used for the treatment of menopausal symptoms were tested for estrogenic activity. Methanol extracts of red clover (Trifolium pratense L.), chasteberry (Vitex agnus-castus ...

Improved detection of breast cancer nuclei using modular neural networks
(2000)A modular neural network-based approach to detect and classify breast cancer nuclei stained for steroid receptors in hispathological sections is evaluated. The system named biopsy analysis support system (BASS) is designed ...

Stable transfection of an estrogen receptor beta cDNA isoform into MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells
(2003)We previously reported stable transfection of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) into the ER-negative MDA-MB-231 cells (S30) as a tool to examine the mechanism of action of estrogen and antiestrogens [J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 84 ...
