Annona crassiflora Mart. fruit pulp effects on biochemical parameters and rat colon carcinogenesis

Abstract: A. crassiflora Mart. a Brazilian savannah fruit, is a source of phytochemical compounds that possess a wide array of biological activities, including free radical scavenging. This native fruit proved to potentialize the mutagenic process in previous in vivo investigations. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of A. crassiflora Mart. pulp intake on colonic cell proliferation and on the development of Aberrant Crypt Foci (ACF) in male Wistar rats. The animals were fed with either a commerc… Show more

“…Some studies have reported the presence of ACGs in different parts of Annonaceae plants, and their anticancerous effect have been shown in several cancerous cell lines as prostate, liver, and lung [6,7], and antitumoral activity in murine models [8,9]. ACGs inhibit the mitochondrial complex I: NADH ubiquinone oxidoreductase, which decreases ATP production causing apoptosis [5].…”
