## Abstract 2‐Amino‐1‐methyl‐6‐phenylimidazo[4,5‐__b__]pyridine (PhIP) is one of the most prevalent carcinogenic heterocyclic amines in the environment, targeting the colon, prostate, pancreas, and mammary gland in rodents. Chemopreventive effects of synthetic and naturally occurring compounds on P
models support this hypothesis. DHEA and synthetic analogues of DHEA have been proposed as possible chemoprotective agents in selected groups. A nested case-control study was conducted using serum samples from a population-based serum bank to examine the association between serum DHEA and DHEAS lev
