The bladder is a hollow elastic organ in the center of the lower abdomen that collects urine from the kidneys and excretes it through the urethra.
Bladder cancer is a medical condition characterized by irregular cell growth in the bladder tissue due to the alternation of DNA.
Most cases of primary bladder cancer start on the cells on the surface of the inner lining. However, after growing large enough, the cancerous cell can spread to other regions in the body through the circulation of fluids and blood.
According to the statistics. 90% of bladder cancer were diagnosed in people who are older than 55. and the average age of people diagnosed with bladder cancer is 73.
Every year, the disease causes over 17,000 deaths, and bladder cancer is the eighth most common cause of cancer death in men.
Bladder cancer is the most common type of cancer that affects men twice as frequently as it affects women.
Usually, it starts from the lining of the bladder and is caused by several types of malignant growths of the urinary bladder cells.
Although there are many risk factors associated with the onset of bladder cancer, long-term cigarette smoking use is considered a significant cause of the disease. Smokers are 4 to 7 times more likely to develop bladder cancer than nonsmokers.
However, most of the cigarette smoker has never developed bladder cancer.
In finding a potential plant that processes anti-cancer activity researchers evaluated the diets rich in cruciferous vegetables, particularly broccoli on bladder cancer risk.
In vitro studies, isothiocyanates, the major chemical compound of cruciferous vegetables inhibited bladder cancer cell lines, induced cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis.
Furthermore, isothiocyanates demonstrated many mechanisms of anticancer activity at the steps of cancer initiation, promotion, and progression.
Moreover, isothiocyanates induced cancer cell death by targeting multiple pathways including the adaptive stress response, phase I/II enzyme modulation, pro-growth, pro-survival, pro-inflammatory signaling, angiogenesis, and even epigenetic modulation, according to multiple in vivo studies.
Collectively, researchers said, "Overall, both cell and animal studies support a potential role for isothiocyanates in bladder cancer prevention and treatment. Future studies must examine clinically relevant outcomes and define guidelines on ameliorating the bladder cancer burden".
Taken together, collard green consists of isothiocyanates that may be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of bladder cancer pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
