A Preliminary Phase-2 Study with very High-Dose of Melatonin (1000 mgday) in Untreatable Advanced Cancer Patients Already Progression on Previous Palliative Therapy with High-Dose Melatonin
A Preliminary Phase-2 Study with very High-Dose of Melatonin (1000 mgday) in Untreatable Advanced Cancer Patients Already Progression on Previous Palliative Therapy with High-Dose Melatonin
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.

Associations of regular glucosamine use with all-cause and cause-specific mortality a large prospective cohort study Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases
Associations of regular glucosamine use with all-cause and cause-specific mortality a large prospective cohort study Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases
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.

Molecular and Cellular Effects of Hydrogen Peroxide on Human Lung Cancer Cells Potential Therapeutic Implications
Molecular and Cellular Effects of Hydrogen Peroxide on Human Lung Cancer Cells Potential Therapeutic Implications
Lung cancer has a very high mortality-to-incidence ratio, representing one of the main causes of cancer mortality worldwide. Therefore, new treatment strategies are urgently needed. Several diseases including lung cancer have been associated with the action of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from which hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is one of the most studied. Despite the fact that H2O2 may have opposite effects on cell proliferation depending on the concentration and cell type, it triggers several antiproliferative responses. H2O2 produces both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA lesions, increases the expression of cell adhesion molecules, and increases p53 activity and other transcription factors orchestrating cancer cell death. In addition, H2O2 facilitates the endocytosis of oligonucleotides, affects membrane proteins, induces calcium release, and decreases cancer cell migration and invasion. Furthermore, the MAPK pathway and the expression of genes related to inflammation including interleukins, TNF-α, and NF-κB are also affected by H2O2. Herein, we will summarize the main effects of hydrogen peroxide on human lung cancer leading to suggesting it as a potential therapeutic tool to fight this disease. Because of the multimechanistic nature of this molecule, novel therapeutic approaches for lung cancer based on the use of H2O2 may help to decrease the mortality from this malignancy.

Most women are just being told what to do, rather than being given the facts necessary to make a fully informed decision. Subscribe to NutritionFacts.org’s free newsletter to receive our B12 infographic that covers the latest research takeaways and Dr. Greger’s updated recommendations: https://nutritionfacts.org/subscribe/ I think I do a pretty good job in the video explaining why I decided to take on this topic. There’s just so much confusion combined with the corrupting commercial interests of a billion dollar industry. As with any important health decision, everyone should be fully informed of the risks and benefits and make up their own mind about their own bodies. That’s why I created this 14 part video series. So that NutritionFacts.org isn’t all-mammograms-all-the-time for weeks, we’re only going to run a few of these back-to-back at a time, interspersing them our “regularly scheduled programming.” Please give us feedback as to whether I should continue to do more of these deep dives or you prefer more superficial coverage across a greater variety of topics (or if we’ve hit the perfect Goldilocks mix!).
