The bound polyphenols of foxtail millet (Setaria italica) inner shell inhibit breast cancer by promoting lipid accumulation-induced autophagic death.

Foxtail millet is a traditional excellent crop with high nutritional value in the world, belong to cereals. The bran of foxtail millet is rich in polyphenol that has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumorigenic effects. Previously, we extracted bound polyphenols from the inner shell of foxtail millet bran (BPIS).

The potential mechanism of Neu5Gc inducing colorectal cancer based on network pharmacology and experimental validation.

Colorectal cancer has high morbidity and mortality worldwide, especially in western countries; the incidence of colorectal cancer has been high, which is closely related to the high intake of red meat; and the N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) is responsible for red meat-induced colorectal cancer. A large number of previous studies have suggested that exogenous Neu5Gc-activated inflammation induced the occurrence of colorectal cancer. However, it has not been known whether the Neu5Gc has a direct inducing effect on colorectal cancer.
