Chemopreventive effects of soy protein and purified soy isoflavones on DMBA-induced mammary tumors in female Sprague-Dawley rats
(2001)There are conflicting reports on the effect of soy and its components on mammary carcinogenesis in adult female rats, mainly because of different rodent models that are used in chemoprevention studies. The present study ...

Dietary retinoids and carotenoids in rodent models of mammary tumorigenesis
(1997)In this review of the scientific literature the relationship between retinoids, carotenoids, and mammary carcinogenesis is examined. Several retinoids have shown promise as chemopreventive agents against chemically induced ...

Phenoxodiol, a novel isoflavone derivative, inhibits dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced mammary carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley rats
(2003)The present study was undertaken to evaluate the potential cancer chemopreventive effects of novel synthetic derivatives of isoflavones. Initially these agents were tested in a mouse mammary organ culture (MMOC) model. ...

Structure-activity relationships of brassinin in preventing the development of carcinogen-induced mammary lesions in organ culture
(1994)Brassinin, a pkytoalexin, is found in Chinese cabbage. Previously, we showed that brassinin significantly inhibited dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA)-induced mammary lesions in organ culture. Moreover, it was an effective ...
