Long-term exposure to synthetic and endogenous estrogens has been associated with the development of cancer in several tissues. One potential mechanism of estrogen carcinogenesis involves catechol formation and these catechols are further oxidized to

The antiestrogen, tamoxifen, has been extensively used in the treatment and prevention of breast cancer. Although tamoxifen showed benefits in the chemotherapy and chemoprevention of breast cancer, epidemiological studies in both tamoxifen-treated br

Betulinic acid has been modified at C-3, C-20, and C-28 positions and the toxicity of the derivatives has been evaluated against cultured human melanoma (MEL-2) and human epidermoid carcinoma of the mouth (KB) cell lines. This preliminary investigati

Catechols are widespread in the environment, especially as constituents of edible plants. A number of these catechols may undergo oxidative metabolism to electrophilic o-quinones (3,5-cyclohexadien-1,2-dione) by oxidative enzymes such as cytochrome P

Methods are described for assessing the estrogenic or anti-estrogenic potential of test substances using cultured (human endometrial) Ishikawa cells. This cell line possesses an estrogen-inducible alkaline phosphatase, and estrogenic activity is indi

As a result of bioassay-guided fractionation, betulinic acid, a pentacyclic triterpene, was identified as a melanoma-specific cytotoxic agent. In follow-up studies conducted with athymic mice carrying human melanomas, tumour growth was completely inh

Estrogen replacement therapy has been correlated with an increased risk for developing breast and endometrial cancers. One potential mechanism of estrogen carcinogenesis involves metabolism of estrogens to 2- and 4-hydroxylated catechols, which are f

Excessive exposure to synthetic and endogenous estrogens has been associated with the development of cancer in several tissues. 4-Hydroxyequilenin (4-OHEN), a major metabolite of equine estrogens present in estrogen replacement formulations, has been

The risk factors for women developing breast and endometrial cancers are all associated with a lifetime of estrogen exposure. Estrogen replacement therapy in particular has been correlated with a slight increased cancer risk. Previously, we showed th
