dimethyl sulfoxide and Cancer of Prostate

dimethyl sulfoxide has been researched along with Cancer of Prostate in 24 studies

Dimethyl Sulfoxide: A highly polar organic liquid, that is used widely as a chemical solvent. Because of its ability to penetrate biological membranes, it is used as a vehicle for topical application of pharmaceuticals. It is also used to protect tissue during CRYOPRESERVATION. Dimethyl sulfoxide shows a range of pharmacological activity including analgesia and anti-inflammation.
dimethyl sulfoxide : A 2-carbon sulfoxide in which the sulfur atom has two methyl substituents.

( Darzynkiewicz, Z; Halicka, HD; Mikulski, SM; Mittelman, A; Murakami, T; Papageorgio, CN; Shogen, K, 2000)
"We hypothesize that estrogens initiate prostate cancer mainly by formation of 4-catechol estrogens (CE), followed by their oxidation to catechol estrogen-3,4-quinones (CE-3,4-Q), which can react with DNA."1.31Catechol estrogen metabolites and conjugates in different regions of the prostate of Noble rats treated with 4-hydroxyestradiol: implications for estrogen-induced initiation of prostate cancer. ( Badawi, AF; Bosland, MC; Cavalieri, EL; Devanesan, P; Rogan, EG, 2002)
