A study conducted in Nebraska (USA) suggests that Resveratrol is hidden in a can shield against breast cancer
In resveratrol, a substance present in red wine and available in food supplements pills anti-aging, it also conceals shield against a possible breast cancer.
Searches laboratory have indeed shown that this substance off the formation of abnormal cells which is the source of many types of breast cancer.
The study, published in 'Cancer Prevention Research', thus suggesting a potential preventive effect of the molecule that, in nature, is found in red grapes and hence in red wine.
The research was conducted dall'Eppley Institute for Research in Cancer University of Nebraska (USA). "Resveratrol has the ability to prevent the first event in the chain that are followed when estrogen start the process that leads to cancer. We believe that this could stop the entire series of events that led to the breast cancer, "said the Rogan.
His team measured on a laboratory slide, the effect of resveratrol on cellular functions known to contribute to breast cancer . Scientists believe that many types of breast cancer are triggered by an increase in estrogen, which reacts with DNA molecules to form DNA adducts (a biomarker widely used as an indicator of genotoxic damage in subjects exposed to carcinogenic and mutagenic) .
Well, the team found that resveratrol can suppress the formation of these adducts. "A great thing, because we were able to accomplish this with low concentrations of resveratrol in cells that we studied, "the researchers write . Increasingly, scientists have found that the practitioner is able to suppress the expression of CYP1B1 and the formation of 2, 3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, two risk factors for breast cancer. The study is therefore very promising but it 'was conducted on cells in the laboratory and must be confirmed by further and more extensive research, directly on 'man.
