Dietary Compounds as Epigenetic Modulating Agents in Cancer
Frontiers in Genetics, 2019 Epigenetic mechanisms control gene expression during normal development and their aberrant regulation may lead to human diseases including cancer. Natural phytochemicals can largely modulate mammalian epigenome through regulation of mechanisms and ...

Endocrine disruptors from the environment affecting breast cancer
Oncology Letters, 2020 Evaluation of carcinogenic substances from the environment is a challenge for scientists. Recently, a novel approach based on 10 key characteristics of human carcinogens classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has emerged ...

Squamous Cancer of the Esophagus in Africa: A Causal Pathway Established
Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Biology, 2022 Squamous cancer of the esophagus has been endemic in much of East, Central and Southern Africa since the 1940s. Much research has concentrated on attempts to identify major carcinogenic influences, and failure to do so has made it clear that the problem ...

Environmental risk factors for cancer - review paper.
Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2019 The cancerous process is result of disturbed cell function. This is due to the accumulation of many genetic and epigenetic changes within the cell, expressed in the accumulation of chromosomal or molecular aberrations, which leads to genetic instability.

Synthetic Receptors for Early Detection and Treatment of Cancer
Biosensors, 2023 Over recent decades, synthetic macrocyclic compounds have attracted interest from the scientific community due to their ability to selectively and reversibly form complexes with a huge variety of guest moieties. These molecules have been studied within a

An Assessment on Ethanol-Blended Gasoline/Diesel Fuels on Cancer Risk and Mortality
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021 Although cancer is traditionally considered a genetic disease, the epigenetic abnormalities, including DNA hypermethylation, histone deacetylation, and/or microRNA dysregulation, have been demonstrated as a hallmark of cancer.

Hallmarks of Cancer-Related Newly Prognostic Factors of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018 Head and neck cancer, including oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), is the sixth leading malignancy worldwide. OSCC is an aggressive tumor and its prognosis has exhibited little improvement in the last three decades.
