Journal Article

Inhibition of skin tumorigenesis by rosemary and its constituents carnosol and ursolic acid.

TL;DR: Topical application of carnosol or ursolic acid isolated from rosemary inhibited TPA-induced ear inflammation, ornithine decarboxylase activity, and tumor promotion and applied to mice previously initiated with DMBA inhibited the number of skin tumors per mouse.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibitory effects of curcumin on tumor initiation by benzo[a]pyrene and 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene

TL;DR: The effects of topical administration of curcumin on the formation of benzo,[a]pyrene (B[a]P)-DNA adducts and the tumorigenic activities of B[a?]P and 7,12-dimethylbenz[a].anthracene (DMBA) in epidermis were evaluated in female CD-1 mice.
Journal Article

Inhibitory effect of green tea in the drinking water on tumorigenesis by ultraviolet light and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate in the skin of SKH-1 mice.

TL;DR: Treatment of the animals with the green tea extract not only decreased the number of skin tumors but also decreased substantially the size of the tumors.
Journal Article

Inhibition of N-nitrosodiethylamine- and 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone-induced tumorigenesis in A/J mice by green tea and black tea.

TL;DR: An inhibitory action of green tea and black tea on nitrosamine-induced tumorigenesis is demonstrated and is clearly demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibitory effect of topical application of a green tea polyphenol fraction on tumor initiation and promotion in mouse skin.

TL;DR: Topical application of green tea polyphenol fraction inhibited TPA-induced inflammation, ornithine decarboxylase activity, hyperplasia and hydrogen peroxide formation, studies with individual polyphenolic compounds in green tea indicated.
