Breast cancer (BC) is a leading cause of cancer deaths in women in less developed countries and the second leading cause of cancer death in women in the U.S. In this study, we report the inhibition of E2-mediated mammary tumorigenesis by Cuminum cyminum (cumin) administered via the diet as cumin powder, as well as dried ethanolic extract. Groups of female ACI rats were given either an AIN-93M diet or a diet supplemented with cumin powder (5% and 7.5%, w/w) or dried ethanolic cumin extract (1%, w/w), and then challenged with subcutaneous E2 silastic implants (1.2 cm; 9 mg). The first appearance of a palpable mammary tumor was significantly delayed by both the cumin powder and extract. At the end of the study, the tumor incidence was 96% in the control group, whereas only 55% and 45% animals had palpable tumors in the cumin powder and extract groups, respectively. Significant reductions in tumor volume (660 ± 122 vs. 138 ± 49 and 75 ± 46 mm3) and tumor multiplicity (4.21 ± 0.43 vs. 1.16 ± 0.26 and 0.9 ± 0.29 tumors/animal) were also observed by the cumin powder and cumin extract groups, respectively. The cumin powder diet intervention dose- and time-dependently offset E2-related pituitary growth, and reduced the levels of circulating prolactin and the levels of PCNA in the mammary tissues. Mechanistically, the cumin powder diet resulted in a significant reversal of E2-associated modulation in ERα, CYP1A1 and CYP1B1. Further, the cumin powder diet reversed the expression levels of miRNAs (miR-182, miR-375, miR-127 and miR-206) that were highly modulated by E2 treatment. We analyzed the composition of the extract by GC/MS and established cymene and cuminaldehyde as major components, and further detected no signs of gross or systemic toxicity. Thus, cumin bioactives can significantly delay and prevent E2-mediated mammary tumorigenesis in a safe and effective manner, and warrant continued efforts to develop these clinically translatable spice bioactives as chemopreventives and therapeutics against BC. 相似文献

A new nanocomposite material consisting of poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PVP) and vermiculite is synthesized by the intercalative redox polymerization of VP in the gallery of copper(II) ion-exchanged vermiculite. The formation of a single filament of the polymer in the gallery is confirmed by the increase in gallery spacing of 4.7 Å as indicated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Electron spin resonance studies confirm the presence of Cu(II) upon ion exchange and its absence following redox polymerization. The amount of polymer present in the gallery is found to be ∼18–19 mass % by thermogravimetric analysis. Confining the polymer to the gallery spacing in vermiculite results in enhanced thermal stability that is evident from the increase in the initial decomposition temperature by ∼300°C. Differential scanning calorimetry of the nanocomposite indicates that the polymer is confined to a restricted geometry because of the absence of a glass-transition temperature, which confirms the XRD finding. The IR absorption peaks corresponding to PVP and the expected PVP UV π–π* transition at 275 nm, along with the XRD and thermal data confirms that the gallery expansion is due to the PVP filament. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

α-MoO3 thin films were deposited onto a glass substrate with 0.01 M ammonium heptamolybdate tetrahydrate as a precursor salt and deionized water as solvent using spray pyrolysis technique. The influence of precursor solution volume on the structural, morphological, optical and electrical properties were analysed and reported. 相似文献

CdO thin films on glass substrate were prepared by home built spray pyrolysis unit from aqueous solution of Cd(CH3COO)2·2H2O at different substrate temperatures. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies indicate the formation of polycrystalline cubic CdO phase with preferential orientation along (111) plane. X-ray line broadening technique is adopted to study the effect of substrate temperature on microstructural parameters such as grain size and microstrain. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shows that the film prepared at 250°C consists of spherical shape grains with size in nanometer range and is comparable with the XRD studies. 相似文献

Beads free polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/NiO nanofibers with an average diameter of 400 nm were successfully prepared through the electrospinning method. NiO nanograins were formed along the axis of the nanofiber due to the calcination of as-spun fibers for 24 h at 450 °C and their presence was confirmed by FESEM. NiO nanograins were characterized by XRD, XPS and FTIR. The characterization results showed the presence of NiO in nanograins and its polycrystalline nature with ionic states. The sensing studies of NiO nanograins were performed towards the pulmonary disease breath markers and they showed better response towards formaldehyde vapour at 350 °C. Calcined NiO grains showed a good response towards the 11–1145 ppm of formaldehyde vapour at the operating temperature of 350 °C. NiO nanograins also showed quick response time (37 s) and recovery time (14 s) towards 46 ppm of formaldehyde. A sensing mechanism was proposed for the formaldehyde vapour interaction at 350 °C with NiO nanograins. 相似文献

Field-effect transistor structures based on polydiacetylene (PDA) derivatives have been fabricated. Monolayer channels of UV polymerized pentacosa-10,12-diynoic ethanolamide exhibit modulation of source-drain current on application of a gating voltage. Comparison of the two-dimensional crystal morphology of this material with several closely related derivatives that show no gating suggests that a high degree of alignment and order in the polymer chains is necessary for the observed transistor action. 相似文献
