Nutrigenetics “[I]dentify the genetic markup of a particular
individual co-ordinates his or her response to various
dietary nutrients.”
5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR)
gene is likely to require a more bioavailable form of
folate for optimal health.
Twin studies have shown that the risk of identical
twins to develop the same cancer is <10%, of which
cancer risk is increased only if there is gene-diet
interaction .

Krause Food and The Nutrition Care Processes
Chemoprevention The intake of foreign agents in order to restrain induction,
to prevent or slow the progression of cancer, or reversal of carcinogenesis at a premalignant stage.
A use of pharmaceutical or nutraceutical agents, i.e. phytochemicals via inactivation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), or interruption of cell signaling pathways.
González-Vallinas et al. have suggested that “the strategies to research phytochemicals should mimic those in the development of new targeted antitumor drugs.”
Primary (avoidance), secondary (detection and elimination), and tertiary (preventing recurrence, progression, and disease-related complications)

4 in vitro studies using colon cancer cell lines to study the
effect of apple juice on cancer cells, PKC activity in HT29
cells, oxidative damage, presence of butyl hydroperoxide-
induced ROS, cytochrome P450 1A1 enzyme and other
enzymes relevant to cancer etiology
Artificial mixture imitating the natural polyphenolic property is less
effective than its natural counterpart, so as the isolated components
than the mixtures.
In addition, SCFA has increased 1.5 fold in fermentation caused by
human fecal flora than non-fermented samples; it is known to stimulate
apoptosis.
3 in vivo studies using rat models studied the numbers of
large aberrant crypt foci and stimulation of redox-sensitive
gene expression.
Apple juices have no cancer preventative bioactivity in obese rats, while
pre-neoplastic lesions in the rats were reduced at different rates
according to the quantity of apple juices fed. Jaganathan SK, Vellayappan MV, Narasimhan G,et al. Chemopreventive effect of apple and berry fruits against colon cancer. World J

3 in vitro studies using human intestinal carcinoma cells
and the effect of AREs and flavonoids on their growth .
Those cell growths are inhibited while NCM 460, normal epithelial
cells are found to grow unaffectedly.
2 in vivo studies demonstrated purple corn extract and
lyophilized black raspberries
Decrease in the prevalence of aberrant crypt foci and early
colon cancer lesions
Inhibit colorectal cancer and/or polyp tissue.
And, low dose of mirtocyan is associated with reduced circulating
insulin-like growth factor-1, which is procarcinogenic.

Cloudy liquid is found to be more effective than clear and smoothie apple juices
2 apples per day for humans may provide 4-10 mg procyanidin to attain similar effect
22 grams of chokeberry extract to obtain 1.3 grams of cyanidin-3-glycoside (chrysanthemin), an anthocyanin derivative.
Limitations of the studies are those results are yielded in vitro or in rat models which may not be as effective as in human subjects
The quantity of each phytochemicals required is not demonstrated in every study reviewed.
More large scale human trials are required to establish the validity and practicality of fruit juice’s chemopreventive effects in human colon cancer.

Park et al.
Morin, a flavonoid from moraceae, induces
apoptosis by induction of BAD protein in
human leukemic cells
Investigated the anti-cancer activity of morin in human
leukemic cells
A flavonoid originally isolated from Moraceae family
mulberry figs and Chinese herbs
Regulates the inflammatory response, and suspenses
carcinogenesis and cancer progression.
Apoptosis is the major mechanism that is suggested to be
responsible for the anti-cancer effects of fruits and
vegetables.

HL-60, K562, THP-1, and U937 human leukemia cells from the American type culture collection (Manassas, VA, USA)
Morin obtained from Aging Tissue Bank (Pusan, Korea)
Cells were treated in the cell viability essay, MTT, for 48 hours to investigate the anti-cancer activity
Absorbance of each well was measured a 540 nm with an enzyme-linked immuosorbent assay (ELISA) reader (Sunnyvale, CA, USA)
Then, the cells were harvested and lysed, followed by flow cytometry analysis to measure the mitochondrial membrane potential and ROS generation.
Various analyses such like Western blot, colorimetric assay were performed.
Significant difference by ANOVA with p<0.05

U937 cells were most sensitive to morin
Morin induced caspase-dependent apoptosis through an intrinsic pathway by up-regulation of BAD proteins in U937 cells.
The maximum concentration used in the study is 2-5 folds higher than other studies investigating its antitumor effect.
Morin also performed activities leading to apoptosis in human leukemia HL-60 cells 1) promoted ROS and Ca2+ productions,
2) disruptions of mitochondria membrane potential, and
3) activated caspase-3 and caspase-9
In conclusion, morin might be useful in the treatment of human hematopoietic cancer cells.

However, studies focusing on β-carotene alone are
also excluded due to its extensiveness in current
literatures. Thus, no randomized controlled trials
(RCTs) are included in this review.

Clinical Practice. 2012; 27 (5): 599-612. DOI: 10.1177/0884533612456043.
Carotenoids:
55 studies are examined; the most commonly studied carotenes are
α-carotene, β-carotene, and lycopene for their antioxidant
properties which is considered the main mechanism for cancer
prevention.
Other mechanisms include their ability to modulate intercellular
communication via gap junctions, alter intracellular signaling
pathways, and enhance immune function.
2 studies demonstrated an inverse relationship among higher level of
β-carotene with renal cancer cells, while 1 study found a null
association .
4 studies reported an inverse relationship among β-cryptoxanthin and
lung cancer while 2 other studies fun null associations.
No significance reported for most other carotenoids and cancer site
studies.
But, longer duration of β-carotene supplementation may increase lung
cancer risk .

Clinical Practice. 2012; 27 (5): 599-612. DOI: 10.1177/0884533612456043.
Phytosterols: only 1 epidemiological study examining phytosterol and no effect on cancer risk with greater intake, despite the promising results shown in animal and cell culture studies.
Isothiocyanates: 4 out of 5 studies reviewed have shown a prospective effect of higher levels of Isothiocyanates.
Chlorophyll: although animal and cell culture studies have identified the plausible mechanism of chlorophyll and reduced cancer risk, the only epidemiological study did not suggest a significant relationship among them.
Phytoestrogens: 39 studies are examined. Greater levels of total flavonoid or specific types of flavonoids are found to be inversely associated with lung, breast , stomach, prostate, pancreatic, ovarian, and/or colorectal cancers .
Most consistent association is found with lung cancer.

Clinical Practice. 2012; 27 (5): 599-612. DOI: 10.1177/0884533612456043.
In summary, an isolated study for any phytochemicals is
limited due to their synergetic actions in cancer risk
reduction, whether among other phytochemicals or dietary
nutrients.
10 studies reported an increase cancer risk with higher
dietary intakes or serum, plasma, or urine metabolite levels
of certain phytochemicals.
There is insufficient evidence to recommend a single
phytochemical supplementation to reduce cancer risk.

Take Home Message Phytochemicals, such as phenols and anthocyanin (from apples and
berries) have protective features against growth of cancer cells, but
the quantity and effectiveness in humans are still uncertain.
Rossi et al. reviewed a number of phytochemicals commonly found in
beverages we drink and their chemopreventive properties. Since
there is no existing chemopreventive agent on the market, drinking
beverages rich in phytochemicals, namely EGCG in green tea, cocoa
in chocolates, caffeine in coffee, may be “an easy way to drink our
prevention.”
Majority of the studies are done in animals and cell cultures, the
effects of phytochemicals on cancer prevention or inhibition are
based on targeting the type of cells, cell signaling, cell growth, etc.
without interference of any other metabolic activities those are taking
place constantly in a human body.
Up to this date, there is insufficient evidence to recommend a
single phytochemical supplementation to reduce cancer risk. Rossi T, Gallo C, Bassani B, Canali S, Albini A, Bruno A. Drink your prevention: beverages with cancer
preventive phytochemicals. Polskie Archiwum Medycyny Wewnetrznej. 2014; 124 (12): 713-719.
