Core Tip |
Phytoestrogens have multiple actions within target cells, including the epigenome, which could be beneficial to the development and progression of breast cancer. In this brief review the action of phytoestrogens on oestrogen receptors, cell signalling pathways, regulation of the cell cycle, apoptosis, steroid synthesis and epigenetic events in relation to breast cancer are discussed. The difficulties in interpreting experimental evidence relating to the beneficial effects of phytoestrogens in light of dietary/supplementary intake and bioavailability of ingested phytoestrogens is also addressed.
