Although smoking cessation is the primary goal for the control of cancer and other smoking-related
diseases, chemoprevention provides a complementary approach applicable to high …

Specimens of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were either kept in an aquarium under
laboratory conditions or caged in the River Po (Northern Italy), upstream or downstream the …

N-Acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) has been shown to exert cancer-protective mechanisms and effects
in experimental models. We report here the results of a randomized, double-blind, placebo…

Endocrine disruptors (EDs) represent a major toxicological and public health issue, and the
xenoestrogen bisphenol A (BPA) has received much attention due to its high production …

Our studies provide evidence that thiols, such as N-acetyl-l-cysteine, inhibit both spontaneous
mutations and induced mutations in bacteria, prevent the in vivo formation of carcinogen-…

Multiple points of intervention are the target for dietary and pharmacological interventions
aimed at preventing cancer and other diseases in which mutations in somatic cells play a …

The thiol N‐acetylcysteine (NAC), now under clinical trial for cancer chemoprevention both
in Europe (project Euroscan) and in the US (National Cancer Institue), has been shown …

Among endocrine disruptors, the xenoestrogen bisphenol A (BPA) deserves particular
attention due to widespread human exposure. Besides hormonal effects, BPA has been …

The thiol N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a chemopreventive agent that acts through a variety of
mechanisms and can prevent in vivo carcinogenesis. We have previously shown that NAC …

The thiol N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC), an analogue and precursor of reduced glutathione, has
cancer chemopreventive properties attributable to its nucleophilicity, antioxidant activity, and …
