OBJECTIVE
To investigate (i) dietary patterns associated with consumption of vegetable oils rich in monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), and (ii) the risk of prostate cancer associated with consumption of these oils.
METHODS
A population-based case-control study was conducted in Auckland, New
The geographic differences in the incidence of colorectal cancer have been mostly attributed to variations in diet. The diversity of the Mediterranean diet and the heterogeneity of acquired genetic alterations in colorectal cancer sets the stage for investigating the possible association between
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is overexpressed in many human cancers and converts the n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) arachidonic acid to prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), which drives tumorigenesis; in contrast, n-3 PUFA inhibit tumorigenesis. We tested the hypothesis that these antitumor actions of
The final proof about the specific mechanisms by which the different components of olive oil, the principal source of fat in a typical "Mediterranean diet", exert their potential protective effects on the promotion and progression of several human cancers requires further investigations. A recent
Olive oil is an integral ingredient of the "Mediterranean diet" and accumulating evidence suggests that it may have a potential role in lowering risk of several cancers. We recently hypothesized that the anti-cancer actions of olive oil may relate to its monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) oleic acid
Sorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor that is effective in treating advanced liver cancer. Although its mechanism of action through several established cancer-related protein kinase targets is well-characterized, sorafenib induces variable responses among human tumors, and the cause for this
Nutrition has been widely studied as a leading environmental factor in the prevention of breast cancer (BC). Despite the challenges in relating consumption of specific nutrients to BC risk, particularly in the context of a total diet, many investigators have contributed valuable information. Dietary
Epidemiologic evidence in humans and controlled trials in animal models indicate that total dietary fat increases the risk of cancer. The animal evidence indicates that the greatest efficacy in promoting carcinogenesis is achieved with omega-6 fatty acids with little or no effect from either the
Cancer is a disease that is characterized by the loss of genetic control over cell growth and proliferation, mainly as a result of the exposure to environmental factors. Cessation of smoking and a high consumption of fruits and vegetables are the most important means of reducing the risk of cancer
This study aimed to examine the associations between intakes of various nutrients and food groups and colorectal cancer risk in a case-control study among Koreans aged 20 to 80 years. A total of 150 new cases and 116 controls were recruited with subjects' informed consent. Dietary data were
To provide further insight on the relationship between macronutrients and colorectal cancer, overall and by specific subsite(s), we carried out between 1992 and 1996 in 6 Italian areas a case-control study on 1,953 individuals of both sexes with incident colorectal cancer (age range 19-74) and 4,154
Olive oil consumption has been suggested to be inversely associated with breast cancer risk, likely due to its high monounsaturated fatty acid and polyphenol content. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to assess the association between olive oil and breast cancer risk, including assessing the
Epidemiological studies have provided controversial evidence of the association between dietary fatty acids intake and endometrial cancer risk. The continuous update project of World Cancer Research Fund failed to focus on this issue. To address this inconsistency, we conducted this dose-response
Various aspects of adult diet have been linked to breast cancer development. These include intake of fat (risk factor), and intake of fibre, soy protein and vitamins A, C and E (protective factors). Results of previous studies have been inconsistent. We examined the possible associations between
Based on a lower reported incidence of breast cancer in the Arab population in Israel, nutritional levels were evaluated in a case-control study of 33 Jewish and 10 Arab patients with breast cancer all matched with a first-degree family-related control. Demographic, gynecologic, obstetric,
