Abstract Background Nutritional factors play a major role in cancer initiation and development. Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have the ability to induce modifications activity of lipoxygenase (LOX) cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes that affect tumour growth. We studied effect two diets enriched 6% Walnut Peanut oils are rich ω-3 ω9 PUFAs respectively on murine mammary gland adenocarcinoma as compared with control (C) received commercial diet. Results oil diet induced an increase...
Diabetic encephalopathy is a chronic complications of diabetes mellitus that affects the central nervous system. We evaluated effect ω3 and ω6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) supplementation plus antioxidant agent nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) on etiopathology diabetic in eSS rats, spontaneous model type 2 diabetes. One hundred twenty male rats 38 non-diabetic Wistar, used as healthy control, received monthly by intraperitoneal route, or PUFA (6.25 mg/kg) alone NDGA (1.19 for 12...
Cancer is the second cause of death in Argentina; nevertheless distribution cancer incidence rates throughout country unknown. This study was conducted to describe patterns Córdoba Province. Incidence data were supplied by Government Registry. Demographic information (age, sex, and place residence) diagnosis, certified a pathologist, about all incident cases from June 2003 May 2005 type 5-year age groups obtained. Comparison rate various counties performed using standardized (SIR) per 100...
There is increasing evidence that dietary habits play a role in prostate cancer (PC) occurrence. Argentinean risk studies require additional attention because of the singular pattern this population. A case-control study (147 PC cases, 300 controls) was conducted Córdoba (Argentina) throughout 2008-2013. principal component factor analysis performed to identify patterns. mixed logistic regression model applied, taking into account family history cancer. Possible bias evaluated by...
Pathogenic mechanisms involved in arterial hypertension (HT) promote the atherosclerosis development. Fatty acids (FAs) could modulate these processes. We investigated association between dietary and serum FAs early development their correlation with vascular inflammation markers HT. 96 patients were included. Dietary information was collected through a validated food frequency questionnaire. Serum detected by gas chromatography. High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin 6...
The relationship between social class indicators, body mass index (BMI), selected life-style habits (alcohol, coffee, maté and tea drinking) colorectal cancer was investigated in a case-control study conducted 1993 1997 Córdoba, Argentina, relatively high mortality area for cancer. Cases were 190 patients below age 80 years with incident, histologically confirmed adenocarcinomas, controls 393 admitted to hospital wide spectrum of acute, non-neoplastic disorders. Higher class, based on...
Epidemiological and laboratory research has shown that dietary components are associated with the risk of developing urinary tract tumors (UTT). The purpose this case-control study, carried out between 2004 2008 in Córdoba, a Mediterranean city Argentina, was to describe role patterns investigate any association UTT. One hundred sixty-eight patients histologically confirmed transitional UTT 334 controls acute, nonneoplastic, nonurinary diseases from same hospitals were studied. All...
