An appraisal of the therapeutic value of lycopene for the chemoprevention of prostate cancer: A nutrigenomic approach

2013-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Lycopene is the predominant and bioactive carotenoid present in the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), a widely appreciated healthful vegetable. In vivo, in vitro and clinical studies conducted in recent years have revealed an inverse association between the dietary intakes of lycopene with the risk of prostate cancer (PCa). Lycopene has been proposed to protect against PCa by the reduction of lipid oxidation, inhibit...
