Cancer

Melatonin, a hormone secreted by pineal gland, exerts antimetastatic effects by reducing tumor cell proliferation, migration and invasion. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that play a crucial role in regulation of gene expression and biological processes of the cells. Herein, we search for a link between the tumor/metastatic-suppressive actions of melatonin and miRNA expression in triple-negative breast cancer cells. We demonstrated that melatonin exerts its anti-tumor actions by reducing proliferation, migration and c-Myc expression of triple negative breast cancer cells. By using Taqman-based assays, we analyzed the expression levels of a set of miRNAs following melatonin treatment of triple negative breast cancer cells and we identified 17 differentially expressed miRNAs, 6 down-regulated and 11 up-regulated. We focused on the anti-metastatic miR-148b and the oncogenic miR-210 both up-regulated by melatonin treatment and studied the effect of their modulation on melatonin-mediated impairment of tumor progression. Surprisingly, when miR-148b or miR-210 were depleted in triple-negative breast cancer cells, using a specific miR-148b sponge or anti-miR-210, melatonin effects on migration inhibition and c-myc downregulation were still visible suggesting that the increase of miR-148b and miR-210 expression observed following melatonin treatment was not required for the efficacy of melatonin action. Nevertheless, ours results suggest that melatonin exhibit a compound for metastatic trait inhibition, especially in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells even if a direct link between modulation of expression of certain proteins or miRNAs and melatonin effects has still to be established.

A powerful new Lancet study reveals that the so-called breast cancer susceptibility genes -- BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 -- do not, in fact, cause breast cancer. Jolie's prophylactic mastectomy, for instance, was for naught.

Millions equate a breast cancer diagnosis with a possible death sentence, doing anything from removing their breasts (and ovaries) with added radiation and chemotherapy treatments, when, in fact, the truth is much more forgiving.

The altered metabolism of two essential amino acids helps drive the development of the most common and lethal form of brain cancer, new research has discovered. The findings suggest new ways to treat the malignancy, slow its progression and reveal its extent more precisely. The study shows that in glioblastoma, the essential amino acids methionine and tryptophan are abnormally metabolized due to the loss of key enzymes in GBM cells.

In this video, we follow Ty and the TTAC crew during their Journey Through ASIA as they talk to doctors and specialists from Thailand about the role of Iodine in cancer prevention. You can watch the entire episode here: http://bit.ly/buy-eastern-medicine. First, Ty sits down with Dr. Thomas Lodi at the LifeCo Clinic Spa in Phuket, Thailand. He tells us how cancer cells need lots of glucose to create energy. Dr. Lodi has found a way to use this dependency to target cancer cells. By using insulin, he’s able to deliver a crushing blow with pinpoint precision. Using targeted metabolic therapies like vitamin C and Boswellia, he’s able to heal his patients. Next Dr. Lodi talks to us about the using ingredients found in nature to reduce inflammation, which is at the root of almost all cancers. He also talks about the importance of fasting to fight cancer and reduce side effects of conventional treatment. Finally, Dr. Lodi talks about iodine deficiency and the importance of lymphatic movement. Iodine deficiency may be one of the main causes of cancer growth and metastasis. You’ll hear from other experts like Dr. Edward Group and Dr. David Brownstein about the importance of iodine for healthy thyroid function and natural cancer defense.

Click here to subscribe - https://www.glutenfreesociety.org/wxrn There’s no denying the fact that gluten can cause significantly more harm than an upset stomach. The truth is a daily diet rich in gluten, grains, and processed foods can lead to cancer. Inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, environmental toxins, hormonal imbalances, and calorie excesses are key driving forces. The big take away from most of this research, is that if you adhere to a gluten free diet, your risk of developing cancer is not increased. So if you haven’t already, go change your, diet and make healthier lifestyle choices. It might just save your life. Also, if you suspect that you have a problem with gluten, please don’t ignore it.

It is known since more than 50 years that the pineal gland plays a fundamental role in the natural biological resistance against cancer onset and growth. The anticancer role of the pineal gland is due to the production of several antitumor molecules, the most known of them is the indole hormone melatonin (MLT). Unfortunately, although there are a lot of experimental evidences that MLT is completely non-toxic, no oncologist seem to be interested to the clinical use of MLT in the treatment of human neoplasms, at least from a palliative point of view. However, a few number of clinical studies of MLT in the complementary treatment of cancer has demonstrated that the anticancer activity of MLT is a dose-dependent phenomenon. On this basis, a preliminary study with a very high dose of MLT, consisting of 1000 mg/once day in the evening, was carried out in untreatable cancer patients, who failed to respond to the conventional anticancer therapies, and for whom the only available treatment was the palliative therapy. The treatment was well tolerated, and a disease control was achieved in 54% patients. These preliminary results would justify further clinical studies to generate a new interpretation of cancer control, consisting of the pharmacological reproduction of the same mechanisms responsible for the natural resistance against cancer development.

Objectives To evaluate the associations of regular glucosamine use with all-cause and cause-specific mortality in a large prospective cohort. Methods This population-based prospective cohort study included 495 077 women and men (mean (SD) age, 56.6 (8.1) years) from the UK Biobank study. Participants were recruited from 2006 to 2010 and were followed up through 2018. We evaluated all-cause mortality and mortality due to cardiovascular disease (CVD), cancer, respiratory and digestive disease. HRs and 95% CIs for all-cause and cause-specific mortality were calculated using Cox proportional hazards models with adjustment for potential confounding variables. Results At baseline, 19.1% of the participants reported regular use of glucosamine supplements. During a median follow-up of 8.9 years (IQR 8.3–9.7 years), 19 882 all-cause deaths were recorded, including 3802 CVD deaths, 8090 cancer deaths, 3380 respiratory disease deaths and 1061 digestive disease deaths. In multivariable adjusted analyses, the HRs associated with glucosamine use were 0.85 (95% CI 0.82 to 0.89) for all-cause mortality, 0.82 (95% CI 0.74 to 0.90) for CVD mortality, 0.94 (95% CI 0.88 to 0.99) for cancer mortality, 0.73 (95% CI 0.66 to 0.81) for respiratory mortality and 0.74 (95% CI 0.62 to 0.90) for digestive mortality. The inverse associations of glucosamine use with all-cause mortality seemed to be somewhat stronger among current than non-current smokers (p for interaction=0.00080). Conclusions Regular glucosamine supplementation was associated with lower mortality due to all causes, cancer, CVD, respiratory and digestive diseases.

In this video, we follow Ty and the TTAC crew during their Journey Through ASIA as they talk to cancer experts in Japan about the best weapons against cancer. You can watch the entire episode here: https://youtu.be/KZ-SimOqC3k. First, Dr. Osamu Mizukami talks about the importance of a healthy diet. The Japanese people have traditionally consumed a very healthy diet, but are beginning to adopt more of the American diet. This means more sugar, more carbs, and more processed fats. As a result, Japan has seen an increase in obesity, high cholesterol, and diabetes. Next, Dr. Mizukami talks about vitamin C, a vital nutrient that many people are missing due to poor diet. High-dose vitamin C injections have been shown to be an effective weapon against cancer. But many doctors who use this therapy are labeled as “quacks”. But there could be a reason for that. Those who claim vitamin C therapy is ineffective often point to a single study. Dr. Mizukami is an epidemiologist – and very familiar with the process for medical studies. He says that it’s too easy for data to be changed and manipulated, and that the study simply can’t be trusted. Finally, learn about selective toxicity, and how the right substances can target cancerous cells without damaging healthy tissue. Did you know that propolis made from bees is selectively toxic to cancer cells? Even viruses can display selective toxicity. Make sure you watch the whole video to discover the amazing power of Rigvir, an amazing anti-cancer medicine that uses a live virus that specifically targets cancer. You’ll hear how the dream of finding cancer treatments that don’t carry harsh side effects could be just around the corner. Want to learn more about these awesome weapons against cancer?
