Phytochemicals inhibit catechol-O-methyltransferase activity in cytosolic fractions from healthy human mammary tissues: implications for catechol estrogen-induced DNA damage.

TL;DR: It is suggested that phytochemicals with a catechol structure have the potential to reduce COMT activity in mammary tissues and may consequently reduce the inactivation of potentially mutagenic estradiol metabolites and increase the chance of DNA damage.
