Consumption of Raw Cruciferous Vegetables is Inversely Associated with
Bladder Cancer Risk - Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 2008
Apr;17(4):938-44 - "We observed a strong and
statistically significant inverse association between bladder cancer risk
and raw cruciferous vegetable intake (adjusted OR for highest versus lowest
category = 0.64; 95% CI, 0.42-0.97), with a significant trend (P = 0.003);
there were no significant associations for fruit, total vegetables, or total
cruciferous vegetables ... These data suggest that cruciferous vegetables,
when consumed raw, may reduce the risk of bladder cancer, an effect
consistent with the role of dietary isothiocyanates as chemopreventive
agents against bladder cancer"

Effects of curcumin on bladder cancer cells and development of urothelial
tumors in a rat bladder carcinogenesis model - Cancer Lett. 2008 Mar 12
- "Exposure of human bladder cancer cells to
curcumin resulted in the induction of apoptotic cell death and caused cells
to arrest in the G2/M phase. The anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 and Survivin protein
was downregulated by the curcumin treatment together with enhancement of the
Bax and p53 expression. The inhibitory activities of curcumin were stronger
than those of cisplatin and could not be prevented by catalase pretreatment
in T24 cells. Clonal assay indicated large-dose and short-term curcumin was
lethal to bladder cancer cells. Moreover, the in vivo study revealed
curcumin did induce apoptosis in situ, inhibit and slow the development of
bladder cancer. These observations suggest that curcumin could prove an
effective chemopreventive and chemotherapy agent for bladder cancer"
