Estrogen Metabolism and Detoxification
It is now well known that one of the most prominent causes of breast cancer, as well as many other hormone related health problems in both men and women, is excessive estrogen exposure from both endogenous and exogenous sources. Improving estrogen metabolism can be of benefit in women with various conditions and family histories, including a family history of breast, uterine, or ovarian cancer,...
متن کاملEstrogen Metabolism and Cancer Risk
The human embryo develops into a woman as a result of estrogen. It helps maintain our breasts, genitalia, vagina, cervix, and parts of our urinary tract. These tissues are estrogen sensitive. Estrogen, though beneficial in many ways to women, has also been linked to cancer of the breast, uterine lining, and cervix. Excessive amounts of estrogen and prolonged exposure to it, can increase our ris...
متن کاملAlcohol and lipid metabolism.
Hepatic lipid metabolism is controlled by several master transcription factors, in particular peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha) and sterol response element binding protein-1 (SREBP-1). Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha is a receptor for free fatty acids (FFA), and can activate genes involved in transport, oxidation, and export of FFA. Sterol response e...
متن کاملLipid absorption and metabolism.
Metabolic processes occurring within the mucosal cell are critical in determining results of interactions between environmental agents and the alimentary tract. The absorption, metabolism, and transport of lipids affects most those agents which are lipid soluble. The understanding of the process involved in lipid absorption and transport is therefore important for both appreciation of the mecha...
متن کاملDrugs and lipid metabolism.
I propose to give a review of the effect of drugs on lipid metabolism which will be extensive rather than intensive. Several excellent reviews are available that discuss the drugs which are most effective for lowering plasma lipid levels in the six main types of human hyperlipoproteinaemia (Lees & Wilson, 1971 ; British Medical Journal, I 972 ; Levy, Fredrickson, Shulman, Bilheimer, Breslow, St...
