Combined hormone therapy (HT) containing estrogen and progestin (medroxyprogesterone acetate [MPA]) leads to increased risk of breast cancer in postmenopausal women, compared with HT regimens containing estrogen alone or placebo. We previously reported that in animal models, progestins can accelerate the development of mammary tumors by increasing vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels. We furthermore showed that curcumin, an Indian spice derived from the turmeric root, specifically inhibits MPA-induced VEGF secretion from breast cancer cells in vitro. In the present study, we investigated whether curcumin inhibits 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced, MPA-accelerated tumors in Sprague-Dawley rats.
