Indole-3-carbinol: A Promising Hope for Cancer Therapy
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a natural agent found in high amounts in cruciferous vegetables and is also available as dietary supplements. It is considered as a promising agent for the ongoing medical research due to its possible antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, antiapoptotic and anti-atherogenic properties. Recent studies are directed towards assessment of the possible effects of I3C on various body organs including the heart, liver, kidney and the endocrine system. This mini-review sheds light on the different properties of I3C that make it a promising therapeutic agent for a wide variety of human diseases including cancer.
