  1. 1. Plant foods, plasma enterolactone and breast cancer - with a focus on estrogen receptor status and genetic variation

    Författare :Emily Sonestedt; Diabetes - kardiovaskulär sjukdom; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; plant foods; breast cancer; fibre; epidemiology; lignans; enterolactone; plasma; estrogen receptor α; estrogen receptor β; polymorphisms; reliability; nutrition; prospective;

    Sammanfattning : Diets high in fibre have previously been associated with decreased risk of breast cancer in the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort. Several potent compounds may exist in high-fibre diets that might protect against breast cancer, for example lignans. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Phytoestrogens and prostate cancer : experimental, clinical, and epidemiological studies

    Nyckelord :prostatic neoplasm; phytoestrogens; lignans; enterolactone; rye; 7-hydroxymataireorcinol; nude mice; TRAMP mice; nested case control study; LNCaP; Oncology; onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Dietary factors may affect development and progression of prostate cancer. Experimental and epidemiological studies have suggested an effect of phytoestrogens on prostate cancer. Lignans are the predominant phytoestrogen in a Western diet. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The role of whole grains and lignans in lifestyle diseases : emphasis on prostate cancer and type 2 diabetes and their risk factors

    Författare :Anne Kirstine Eriksen; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Whole grains are rich in dietary fibre and bioactive compounds and have consistently been associated to improved health and lower mortality. Whole-grain rye is rich in fermentable fibre and lignans, that are converted to enterodiol and enterolactone by the gut microbiota. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Hormone-related dietary factors and estrogen/progesterone-receptor defined postmenopausal breast cancer

    Författare :Reiko Suzuki; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Breast cancer; ER; PR; alcohol; body weight; dietary fiber; dietary lignans;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common invasive cancer among women in Western countries including Sweden. It has been hypothesized that ovarian hormones, such as estrogen and progesterone may, at least partly, play an important role in the etiology of breast cancer. LÄS MER
