Interaction among folate, riboflavin, genotype, and cancer, with reference to colorectal and cervical cancer.

The Journal of nutrition - 1 Dec 2005

Powers Hilary J

Abstract excerpt

Epidemiological studies have linked low folate intake with an increased risk of epithelial cancers, including colorectal cancer and cervical cancer. Riboflavin has received much less attention, but there is increasing interest in the well-established role that flavins play in folate metabolism and the possible synergy of a protective effect between these 2 vitamins. Folate plays a key role in DNA synthesis,...
