Breast cancer (BC) is a prominent source of cancer mortality in women throughout the world. β-Sitosterol-d-glucoside (β-SDG), a newly isolated phytosterol from sweet potato, possibly displays potent anticancer activity. However, the probable anticancer mechanisms involved are still unclear. This

Solanum chacoense (wild potato) is intensively used in breeding, its biochemical profile and putative human health-related traits being transferred into potato cultivars aimed for consumption. The goal of this study was to evaluate the biochemical profile and the anti-tumor potential of

The present study provides the method for simultaneous separation and determination of concentration and evaluates anti-breast cancer activity of three phytosterols from the sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.): daucosterol linolenate (DLA), daucosterol linoleate (DL), and daucosterol palmitate (DP). A

SPG-56 is a newly isolated glycoprotein from sweet potatoes (Zhongshu NO. 1), but its value for suppressing breast cancer progression remains unknown. This study was designed to investigate the potential anti-cancer effects of SPG-56, which consists of 2.9% sugar and 97.1% protein. The effects of

BACKGROUND Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is one of the most important consumed crops in many parts of the world because of its economic importance and content of health-promoting phytochemicals. METHODS With the sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) as our model, we investigated the exogenous

We conducted a large-scale, hospital-based case-control study to evaluate differences and similarities in the risk factors of female breast cancer according to menopausal status. This study is based on a questionnaire survey on life style routinely obtained from outpatients who first visited the

Three depsidones boremexins A-C (1-3), two diaryl ethers boremexins D (4) and E (5), together with four known compounds were obtained from cultures of potato endophytic fungus Boeremia exigua. Their structures with absolute configurations were established by extensive spectroscopic methods and

BACKGROUND A protective effect of resistant starch (RS) containing foods on carcinogenesis has been shown from several lines of experimental evidence for gastrointestinal cancers. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the association between RS contained foods and breast cancer (BC) risk in a

OBJECTIVE Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide. Most previous studies focused on individual nutrients or foods rather than overall dietary patterns. We aimed to assess the association between major dietary patterns and breast cancer risk. METHODS In a hospital-based

Several forms of protein kinase C with molecular masses of 74-, 77-, and 80-kDa were detected in subcellular fractions of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells which express the alpha-type protein kinase C. Several lines of evidence indicated that the 74-kDa is the precursor of the 77- and 80-kDa

Nanoparticles based on non-pathogenic viruses have opened up a novel sector in nanotechnology. Viral nanoparticles based on plant viruses have clear advantages over any synthetic nanoparticles as they are biocompatible and biodegradable self-assembled and can be produced inexpensively on a large

When crude enzymes prepared from some vegetables and fruits were incubated with bisphenol A (2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, BPA) at 37 degrees C, BPA was oxidized by crude enzymes from potato, eggplant, and lettuce. The crude enzyme prepared from potato (Solanum tuberosum) had the strongest

Acrylamide, a probable human carcinogen, is formed during high-temperature cooking of many commonly consumed foods. It is widespread; approximately 30% of calories consumed in the United States are from foods containing acrylamide. In animal studies, acrylamide causes mammary tumors, but it is

Analyses of antioxidant and in vitro antimicrobial and anti-proliferative activities of anthocyanin-rich extracts from purple potatoes, Solanum tuberosum L. cv Vitelotte noire (Solanaceae), were performed by simulating both a domestic cooking process and human digestion. Extracts of crude and cooked
