PhIP (2-Amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo(4,5-b)pyridine) is a dietary genotoxic carcinogen formed in heat processed meat and fish via the Maillard reaction. PhIP is a primary metabolite activated by CYP1A2 and N-acetyltransferase 1 or sulfotransferase to DNA reactive metabolite.

The effects of the deacetylation degree (DD) of chitosan on heterocyclic aromatic amine formation were investigated in chemical models and beef patties. The results in model systems showed that at lower addition levels (10 mg), chitosan with 85% DD showed
The prevalent cancer predisposition Lynch syndrome (LS, OMIM #120435) is caused by an inherited heterozygous defect in any of the four core DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes MSH2, MSH6, MLH1 or PMS2. MMR repairs errors by the replicative DNA polymerases
At this point in time, the evidence of a link between well-done meat intake and the incidence of cancer is stronger than it was 20 years ago. Several cohort and case-control studies have confirmed this evidence, and have shown a
More than 85% of breast cancers are sporadic and attributable to long-term exposure to environmental carcinogens, such as those in the diet, through a multistep disease process progressing from non-cancerous to premalignant and malignant stages. The chemical carcinogen 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP)
