Zinco e cancêr: uma revisão
Keywords:
cancêr, zinco nutriçãoAbstract
O câncer é uma das maiores causas de mobi mortalidade no mundo e, é cada vez maior o interesse sobre a importância da nutrição na prevenção do câncer. O zinco é fundamental na função com fatores de transcrição, defesa antioxidante e reparo do DNA e a deficiência alimentar desse mineral pode contribuir para danos e modificações oxidativas do DNA, que aumentam o risco de câncer. Em muitas doenças neoplásicas, alterações nos níveis de zinco plasmático têm sido encontradas e, parece que a suplementação deste mineral está associada com menor estresse oxidativo e melhora da resposta imune em pacientes com câncer. Esta revisão abordará o papel do zinco sobre aspectos relativos ao câncer e, apresentará alguns estudos clínicos sobre a deficiência de zinco nos pacientes portadores dessa doença.
