“…The striking feature of the work done to date in a number of model systems using different dietary interventions is that alterations in metabolism have a far reaching effect on tumor cells, tumors and the tumor microenvironment. Studies have shown reductions in growth rate as one might expect however, there are also changes in the formation of reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress (Stafford et al, 2010; Milder and Patel, 2012; Allen et al, 2013), angiogeneisis (Zhou et al, 2007; Jiang and Wang, 2013; Woolf et al, 2015), hypoxia (Maurer et al, 2011; Poff et al, 2015; Woolf et al, 2015), inflammation and peri-tumoral edema (Mavropoulos et al, 2009; Woolf et al, 2015), metastasis and invasion (Gluschnaider et al, 2014; Lv et al, 2014; Hao et al, 2015; Poff et al, 2015) and the expression of various transcriptional and post-transcriptional modulators such as NF-κB (Woolf et al, 2015) and microRNAs (Pazmandi et al, 2015). …”
