Data on the cytotoxicity of chlorogenic acid in 3D cultures of HT-29 cells.

ABSTRACT: Functional foods, beyond basic nutrition, offer health benefits to consumers thanks to the presence of bioactive compounds such as some phytochemicals [1,2]. Today, these foods are of particular interest in biomedical research due to their chemopreventive potential, as they have been shown to induce various biological effects on tumor cells, including the ability to inhibit cell proliferation, induce apoptosis, arrest cell cycle progression, and increase reactive oxygen species [3,4]. Multiple studies have confirmed the relationship between diet and the onset and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC), a malignant neoplasm that arises in the lining of the colon and/or rectum. Therefore, finding foods that can intervene in the carcinogenesis process is an important avenue of research [5,6].
