Iodine Uptake and Prostate Cancer in the TRAMP Mouse Model
Abstract Iodine supplementation exerts antitumor effects in several types of cancer. Iodide (I−) and Iodine (I2) reduce cell proliferation and induce apoptosis in human prostate cancer cells (LNCaP and DU-145). Both chemical species decrease tumor growth in athymic mice xenografted with DU-145 cells...
