The higher soy intake in the Asian population compared to Europeans is
believed to be an essential factor for the lower incidence of
hormone-dependent tumours in Asia. In the study to to investigate the effects of flax-seed, which is typically found in
Northern European diets, on the proliferation and hormone production of
an estrogen receptor (ER)-positive trophoblast tumour cell line, posted in PubMed, indicated that flax-seed seems to have similar inhibitory effects to soya on hormone
production and proliferation of hormone-sensitive tumour cells. Our
results showed a dose-dependent inhibition by isolated flax-seed
extracts on the Jeg3 cell line. Matairesinol and biochanin A seem to be
useful candidates for extended tests on other tumour cell lines and
normal tissues to evaluate the potential benefit of a lignan-containing
therapy in hormone-dependent diseases.
