Food-Borne Chemical Carcinogens and the Evidence for Human Cancer Risk

Foods, 2022
Commonly consumed foods and beverages can contain chemicals with reported carcinogenic activity in rodent models. Moreover, exposures to some of these substances have been associated with increased cancer risks in humans.

Prevention of Carcinogen and Inflammation-Induced Dermal Cancer by Oral Rapamycin Includes Reducing Genetic Damage [PDF]

Cancer Prevention Research, 2015
Abstract Cancer prevention is a cost-effective alternative to treatment. In mice, the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin prevents distinct spontaneous, noninflammatory cancers, making it a candidate broad-spectrum cancer prevention agent. We now show that oral microencapsulated rapamycin (eRapa) prevents skin cancer in dimethylbenz(a)anthracene

Investigating the different mechanisms of genotoxic and non-genotoxic carcinogens by a gene set analysis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Based on the process of carcinogenesis, carcinogens are classified as either genotoxic or non-genotoxic. In contrast to non-genotoxic carcinogens, many genotoxic carcinogens have been reported to cause tumor in carcinogenic bioassays in animals.

Ocimum sanctum linn: An ethnomedicinal herb as a potential source of anti-carcinogen against various cancer diseases and effective ways to include the basil in everyday diet

International journal of health sciences, 2022
Ethno-medicines have been playing a vital role throughout human history in the day to day healthcare routine. Before the evolution of western medicine, for thousands of years, people have been using traditional medicine for the treatment of different diseases.

Tobacco smoking as risk factor of laryngeal cancer

Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2019
Introduction: Laryngeal cancer is one of the most common type of head and neck cancers. It develops due to spontaneous mutation or influence of external factors (physical, biological and chemical).

The research progress in the interaction between Candida albicans and cancers

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Candida albicans is an opportunistic pathogenic fungus, which tends to infect the host with defective immune function including cancer patients. A growing number of studies have shown that C. albicans infection increases the host susceptibility to cancer
