Potato consumption and risk of pancreatic cancer in the HELGA cohort.

Only registered users can translate articles

Potatoes have been a staple food in many countries throughout the years. Potatoes have a high glycaemic index (GI) score, and high GI has been associated with several chronic diseases and cancers. Still, the research on potatoes and health is scarce and contradictive, and we identified no

Dietary patterns and risk of pancreatic cancer in a large population-based case-control study in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Pancreatic cancer is highly lethal, and identifying modifiable risk factors could have substantial public health impact. In this population-based case-control study (532 cases, 1701 controls), we used principal component analysis and multivariable unconditional logistic regression models to examine

Sporamin induces apoptosis and inhibits NF-κB activation in human pancreatic cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sporamin, a Kunitz-type trypsin inhibitor (TI) from sweet potato tuberous roots, has demonstrated anti-tumor activity through poorly defined mechanisms. Furthermore, the effects of sporamin on pancreatic cancer have not been explored. Herein, we studied the effects of sporamin on two human

Mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibition enhances the antitumor effects of sporamin in human pancreatic cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sporamin, a sweet potato tuber storage protein, is a Kunitz-type trypsin inhibitor (TI) that has exhibited antitumor activity through poorly defined mechanisms in a number of types of tumor cells. The present study aimed to analyze the combined effects of sporamin and three mitogen-activated protein

Antitumor efficacy of α-solanine against pancreatic cancer in vitro and in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

α-solanine, a steroidal glycoalkaloid in potato, was found to have proliferation-inhibiting and apoptosis-promoting effect on multiple cancer cells, such as clone, liver, melanoma cancer cells. However, the antitumor efficacy of α-solanine on pancreatic cancer has not been fully evaluated. In this

IbACP, a sixteen-amino-acid peptide isolated from Ipomoea batatas leaves, induces carcinoma cell apoptosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 16-amino-acid peptide was isolated from the leaves of sweet potato. The peptide caused a rapid alkalinization response in tomato suspension culture media, a characteristic of defense peptides in plants. No post-translational modification was observed on the peptide according to MALDI-MS analysis.

Cancer among farmers in central Italy.

Only registered users can translate articles

This case-referent study evaluated cancer risks among farmers in central Italy. Cancer cases (N = 1674, 17 sites) were selected from all deceased men aged 35-80 years; a random sample of 480 decedents formed the reference series. Farmers had a decreased risk of lung and bladder cancer and melanoma
