Lipid Markers of Caloric Restriction: Pertinence to Cancer (1992)

Title:

Lipid Markers of Caloric Restriction: Pertinence to Cancer

Key words:

caloric restriction, phospholipids

Research Institution:

The Wistar Institute

Location:

Pennsylvania

Researcher:

David Kritchevsky

Project Description:

Dr. Kritchevsky evaluated whether the inhibition of spontaneous and induced carcinogenesis by caloric restriction may be related to changes in the phospholipid profile that occurs in the transformation of normal cells to cancer cells. This was a collaborative study supported by AICR and the Food and Drug Administration�s National Center for Toxicological Research.
