Journal ArticleDOI

Modifying specific cysteines of the electrophile-sensing human Keap1 protein is insufficient to disrupt binding to the Nrf2 domain Neh2

TL;DR: A model is proposed that should aid in the understanding of Keap1-Nrf2 signaling mechanisms and is tested using a series of ARE inducers, suggesting that the direct disruption model for Keap 1-NRF2 is incorrect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural Products as a Vital Source for the Discovery of Cancer Chemotherapeutic and Chemopreventive Agents.

TL;DR: Given the unfathomable diversity of nature, it is reasonable to suggest that chemical leads can be generated that are capable of interacting with most or possibly all therapeutic targets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of Estrogenic Activity of Plant Extracts for the Potential Treatment of Menopausal Symptoms

TL;DR: Genistein was found to be the most effective of four red clover isoflavones tested in the above in vitro assays, suggesting a potential use for some dietary supplements, ingested by human beings, in the treatment of menopausal symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Botanicals in Cancer Chemoprevention

TL;DR: Several lead compounds, such as brassinin (from cruciferous vegetables like Chinese cabbage), sulforaphane (from broccoli) and its analog sulforamate, withanolides (from tomatillos), and resveratrol (from grapes and peanuts) are in preclinical or clinical trials for cancer chemoprevention.
