Journal ArticleDOI
Role of N-nitroso compounds (NOC) and N-nitrosation in etiology of gastric, esophageal, nasopharyngeal and bladder cancer and contribution to cancer of known exposures to NOC.
TL;DR: Evidence that specific cancers are caused by NOC and clues from mutations in ras and p53 genes in human tumors about whether NOC are etiologic agents are discussed and some general conclusions are drawn.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ascorbate-Nitrite Reaction: Possible Means of Blocking the Formation of Carcinogenic N-Nitroso Compounds
TL;DR: The formation of carcinogenic N-nitroso compounds by the chemical reaction between nitrous acid and oxytetracycline, morpholine, piperazine, N-methylaniline, methylurea, and (in some experiments) dimethylamine was blocked by ascorbic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Etiology of Gastric Cancer Intragastric Nitrosamide Formation and Other Theories
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of vitamins C and E on N-nitroso compound formation, carcinogenesis, and cancer.
TL;DR: The author supports the recommendation that fresh fruit and vegetable intake be increased to lower the risk of cancer and reviews the ability of vitamins C and E to inhibit NNC formation in chemical systems, in nitrite‐preserved meat, in experimental animals and in humans.
