Dietary berries and ellagic acid diminish polar DNA adducts in ACI rats treated with 17ß-estradiol Export

@article{citeulike:3611995, abstract = {Female hormone, 17{\ss}-estradiol (E2) is a known risk factor in the development of breast cancer. We have previously shown that due to redox cycling, Cu2+-mediated activation of 4-E2 produces polar oxidative DNA adducts, and that the adduct formation can be inhibited by known or potential antioxidants, including ellagic acid. Dietary administration of ellagic acid and raspberries, a rich source of ellagic acid, also reduced the baseline polar oxidative DNA adducts in CDl mice. In this study, we have tested the efficacy of different berries and ellagic acid on the modulation of polar oxidative adducts in E2-induced rat mammary tumorigenesis model.

Animals (n = 4) were provided either control diet or diet supplemented with 2.5\% powdered mixed berries (1:1 mixture of strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries and black raspberries), 2.5\% blueberries, 2.5\% blueberries plus ellagic acid (400 ppm), or ellagic acid (400 ppm).
