Depending on the circumstances, dietary compounds such as curcumin,
epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), resveratrol and indole-3-carbinol (I3C) can upor down-regulate signalling to induce stress-response genes, or growth arrest
and apoptosis
Manson, 2002
Different chemopreventive agents can suppress the activity of
IKK, PI3K and/or PKB, inhibit the translocation of NF-kB to the
nucleus, or upregulate PTEN
Manson, 2002
Chemopreventive agents, such as indole-3-carbinol and epigallocatechin
gallate, can downregulate the expression or activity of CDKs and
cyclins, and upregulate CDK inhibitors such as p21 and p27, thereby
causing cell-cycle arrest in G1 .

CR manipulates the membrane fatty acid
components as an adaptive measure against agerelated peroxidizability — an efficient and smart
strategy to resist oxidative stress.

ARC (apoptosis repressor) levels in the brain of adult (12AD), old
(26AD), and old caloric restricted (26CR) Fischer 344 male rats
determined by Western blot analysis
Reduction of the incidence of tumors following
reduction of food intake
An even more remarkable example of CR’s ability to resist
irradiation is shown in the work of Gross and Dreyfuss, who
challenged mice with gamma irradiation to induce
tumorigenesis. They not only show a clear-cut tumor
suppression by CR (TABLE) but also that CR rats had a far
better capability of resisting one of the most deleterious forms
of stressors.
