The cancer pathology is especially aggravated when associated with cachexia. This condition frequently lead the patient to a high muscle spoliation (induced by the ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic pathway and reduced protein synthesis), with or without loss of adipose tissue (resulted by higher lipolysis and total lipid oxidation ratio combined to lower lipogenesis). To prevent or modulat…
Cancer is one of the main cause of death. Several studies show the protector effect of many nutrients, like polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid and branched-chain amino acid, as leucine, acting on the preventive way or either modulator against the effects produced by cancer growth. Nowadays, many studies claim that maternal exposure to certain environmental and diets factors, during the em…
Most ovarian cancers are diagnosed late and have a poor prognosis that hasn't changed significantly over the last 30 years. Screening for ovarian cancer does not appear to reduce mortality therefore, the best chance to reduce mortality from ovarian cancer is prevention and identifying women at high risk. Epidemiology studies have confirmed that 5-10 years of oral contraceptive (OC) use re…
