the clinical trial phase I and II Despite numerous reports of these phytochemical effects on cancer, an overview of the mechanisms of their action and their effects on various cellular and molecular functions important in the inhibition of cancer progression has been lacking In this review, we attempt to catalogue various studies to examine the effect of phytochemicals in cancer initiation, promotion, signaling, and epigenetic changes Because of the numerous studies in these topics, we only pointed out to some examples in each section INTRODUCTION Cancer is a growing health problem around the world; particularly with the steady increase in life expectancy, rising levels of urbanization and industrialization, increasing the fast food consumption, and the subsequent changes in environmental conditions, including the lifestyle and production of various pollutions On World Cancer Day 2014, a new global cancer report was compiled by UN Agency, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), showing that as a single entity, cancer is the biggest cause of mortality worldwide with an estimated 8.2 million deaths from cancer in 2012 Thus, this report suggests that cancer is now the world’s biggest killer—with the number of cases set to explode in coming years In fact, World Health Organization (WHO) indicates a 70% increase over next 20 years in worldwide cancer cases Low- and middle-income countries are most at risk of cancer overwhelming their health systems and hindering economic growth, as they have the least resources and infrastructure to cope with the predicted levels of disease escalation Restrictions on alcohol and sugar need to be considered, say WHO scientists as there now exists a “real need” to focus on cancer prevention by tackling smoking, obesity, and drinking Compiled by IARC, The World Cancer Report series is recognized as an authoritative source of global perspective and information on cancer The first volume appeared in 2003 and the second in 2008 The third volume in the series was released in 2014 The concept of a “magic bullet” was popularized by “Paul Ehrlich” (March 14, 1854–August 20, 1915) a German physician and scientist, who worked in the fields of hematology, immunology, and chemotherapy He defined a “magic bullet” as an ideal therapeutic agent that would be created and killed only the organism targeting a disease He reasoned that if a compound could be made that selectively targeted a disease-causing organism, then it could be selectively delivered to that organism; this Phytochemicals Prevent Chemical Carcinogens compound or “magic bullet” could only kill the target organism This concept is now known as “targeted therapy” [1] Since there appears to be no “magic bullet” to treat a diverse type of cancer, it has been apparent that cancer risks can be reduced by eliminating or at least minimizing the exposure to known carcinogens [2] In 1981, Doll and Peto in a report based on the statistical and epidemiological data have announced that among all risk factors of cancer—tobacco, alcohol, occupation, and so on—about 35% (10–70%) of human cancer mortality is attributed to diet [3] Although, it is a wide range variant, but it indicates the importance of diet as a risk factor of cancer On the other hand, an inverse relationship between the risk of specific cancers and consumption of vegetables and fruits have been reported [2] These indicate the importance of Phyto products in diet and in the life Phytochemicals (“Phyto” is from the Greek word meaning plant) are nonnutritive components in the plant-based diet that possess substantial anticarcinogenic and antimutagenic properties [2] Phytochemicals have different roles in both cancer prevention and treatment Despite remarkable progress in understanding the carcinogenic process and devising preventive/therapeutic effects of phytochemicals, the mechanisms of action of most phytochemicals have not yet been fully understood Bioavailability, toxicity, pharmacodynamic, and pharmacokinetics of the plant components(s) should be investigated Oral consumption of some phytochemicals results in lower plasma/serum concentration The reasons for this include: low intestinal absorption, degradation by intestinal enzymes, and/or metabolization by phase I and/or II detoxifying enzymes For example, crocin intestinal absorption is low and most of the orally consumed crocin appeared in the feces of rats [4] In addition, it is degraded by the intestinal enzymes and after h of oral administration of crocin, crocetin was detected in the serum of human subject [5] Thus, oral administration of crocin may have low efficacy for therapeutic purposes, and it should be better that it is administered via injection [6] In addition, adverse (or side) effects of phytochemicals should be considered For example, there are several hundred published research articles and many review papers about the beneficial effects of resveratrol in various diseases, in both in vivo and in vitro studies [7–11] Resveratrol is the most important stilbene related to cancer, and it is present in the foods like peanuts, pistachios, grapes, red and white wine, blueberries, cranberries, and even cocoa and dark chocolate It possesses a natural antiproliferative activity, due to its role as a phytoalexin (plant antibiotic) It also increased the S Zahra Bathaie et al antitumor activity of several other drugs, such as rapamycin in breast cancer and gemcitabine in pancreatic cancer, both in vitro and in vivo [12] Resveratrol affects all three stages of carcinogenesis, including: tumor initiation, promotion, and progression It was found that it acts as an antioxidant and antimutagen, and induces phase II drug-metabolizing enzymes (antiinitiation activity) It also mediated anti-inflammatory effects and inhibited COX1 and hydroperoxidase functions, as well as both COX-2 and MM-92 expression It is a potent inhibitor of nuclear factor NF-κB activation in DMBA3-induced breast cancer in female Sprague-Dawley rats and other tumor types Treatment of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells with resveratrol, in addition to the suppression of NF-κB activation, inhibited proliferation at S/G2/M phase (antipromotion activity) Extensive in vitro studies also revealed multiple intracellular targets of resveratrol, which in addition to inflammation, cell growth, and proliferation affect other targets like apoptosis, angiogenesis, invasion, and metastasis Resveratrol induces human promyelocytic leukemia cell differentiation (antiprogression activity) It inhibited the development of preneoplastic lesions in carcinogentreated mouse mammary glands in culture and inhibited tumorigenesis in a mouse skin cancer model Several other known targets of resveratrol are including: tumor suppressor p53 and Rb4; cell cycle regulators, cyclins, CDKs, p21WAF1, p27KIP and INK, and the checkpoint kinases ATM/ ATR; transcription factors NF-κB, AP-1, c-Jun, and c-Fos; angiogenic and metastatic factors, VEGF, and matrix metalloprotease 2/9; and apoptosis and survival regulators, Bax, Bak, PUMA, Noxa, TRAIL, APAF, surviving, Akt, Bcl-2, and Bcl-xL In some conditions, it also exerts the prooxidant activity and cause oxidative DNA damage that may lead to cell cycle arrest or apoptosis [13–15] In contrast to the above-mentioned data, some papers also reported its adverse effects and show some hints about its application for chemoprevention or, even, its therapeutic effects in human subjects [16–21] The renal toxicity of resveratrol in rat has been observed at the dose of 3000 mg/kg BW5 per day, but the dose of 300 was not toxic [19] However, it has been reported that low concentration (5 mg/kg BW) of resveratrol promotes breast cancer in mice and has a role in metastasis Resveratrol (50 mg/kg BW) induced tumor growth in both MDA-MB-2316 Cyclooxygenase Matrix metalloprotease-9 7,12-dimethylbenz(α)anthracene Retinoblastoma Body weight Mammary carcinoma-derived cell Phytochemicals Prevent Chemical Carcinogens (ERαÀ, ERβ+) and MDA-MB-435 (ERÀ and highly aggressive) breast cancer cells Investigation of the role of resveratrol in breast cancer metastasis indicated the lung metastasis in mice bearing MDA-MB-231 tumor, while metastasis of lung, liver, kidney, and bone from mice bearing MDA-MB435 mammary tumors have been observed [18] Resveratrol also affects the endocrine function and accelerates development of MNU7-induced mammary carcinomas of female rat [20] Thus, resveratrol effect is dependent to both concentration and tumor type Since impressive numbers of positive results were published, more attention on its safety should be considered for clinical usage of resveratrol In the present chapter, regardless of the phytochemical type, we focus on molecular mechanisms involved in the prevention or therapeutic activities of phytochemicals Figure summarized the most important aspect of molecular mechanism of phytochemicals action Because of the considerable studies on the molecular mechanisms of many phytochemicals functions, and the extensive reviews presented by the experts in the volumes 36 and 37 of The Enzymes, we only presented here a few examples for each mechanism with the goal to provide a guidance to check for each phytochemical by researchers in the future PHYTOCHEMICALS APPLICATION IN CHEMOPREVENTION STRATEGIES While there is no “magic bullet” that can completely cure cancer, like many types of diseases, cancer might be prevented To achieve this purpose, all the risk factors should be recognized completely and avoided Without complete identification of risk factors, this type of prevention is difficult to implement For primary prevention, there is a need for large lifestyle changes, but this is not easy to implement The population-based studies indicated the potential of some macronutrients (like fibers) and micronutrients (for example, vitamins and some trace elements) in vegetables and fruits to reduce the risk of cancer While, some macronutrients like carbohydrates and lipids increase the risk of some diseases including cancer The most exciting results have been obtained with antioxidant vitamins and their precursors, as well as the components which N-methyl-N-nitrosourea 248 Senarisoy, M., 14–15
