The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 2.4 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 2.8 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.5 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00049 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.59 SJR: 0.429 SNIP: 0.507 CiteScore™:: 3.9 H-Index: 49

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory, antiproliferatiive, and proapoptotic molecular mechanisms of mangiferin (MGN) against mammary carcinogenesis induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA). Mammary cancer in rats was induced by single-dose subcutaneous injection of 0.5 ml DMBA (80 mg/kg in sesame oil) in the mammary gland. Increased tumor incidence and volume and other tumorigenic properties were observed. Further, we observed in these rats reduced antioxidant enzyme activity and elevated thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) levels in plasma and tissues. DMBA-induced rats shows enhanced expression of the inflammatory markers NF-κBp65, COX-2, and iNOS and proliferation of PCNA and Cyclin D1, and overexpression of the antiapoptotic marker Bcl-2. Mangiferin (100 mg/kg body weight), administered orally once per day, significantly enhanced (p < 0.05) antioxidant levels and reduced TBARS levels. Moreover, MGN inhibited NF-κBp65 nucleus transcriptional activation, thereby suppressing inflammation and cell proliferation, and it increased proapoptotic proteins. Apoptosis was confirmed by TUNEL assay. In summary, MGN suppressed DMBA-induced mammary carcinogenesis through enhanced antioxidant levels, NF-κB inhibition, and positive regulation of apoptotic signals.
