Anti Cancer Effects for Ganoderma Lucidum
Today, cancer takes 10 million lives a year and puts 10 million people on the verge of death. The World Health Organization (WHO) predicts cancer in the 21st century will become the human “first killer”, control of cancer has become one of the global health strategic priorities. For the conquest of cancer, many research institutions around the world and countless experts and scholars conducted a lot of research, including Chinese herbal medicine to seek anti-cancer drugs is an important aspect. It has been found that polysaccharides in Chinese herbal medicine have complex and multifunctional functions, which can control cell division and deterioration, regulate cell growth and aging, and have certain anti-cancer and anti-cancer effects.
In the polysaccharide-rich traditional Chinese medicine, you can discharge a long row of the team: ginseng, Astragalus, Acanthopanax, Poria, mushrooms, Coix seed, Ganoderma lucidum, which Ganoderma and new findings.
Studies have shown that Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides (such as β-D-glucan) and organic selenium containing Ganoderma lucidum can enhance phagocytosis of human macrophages, promote T lymphocyte proliferation, enhance T cell killing “cytotoxicity” Cytokines such as interleukin 1, 2, 6 and tumor necrosis factor production and gene expression. Beijing Medical University, animal experiments also confirmed that Ganoderma lucidum on mouse immune cells (spleen lymphocytes, macrophages) to produce cytokines, can indirectly induce leukemia cell death.
As we all know, cancer cells are mutated cells. Once the mutation, and completely different from normal cells, it is extremely strong vitality, can frantically, endlessly split proliferation, mass quickly grow up, consume large amounts of human nutrition, people rapidly weight loss, while violating vital organs, leading to The patient died.
Why do cancer cells die immortal? It contains a “telomerase.” Both normal cells and cancer cells, both ends of its chromosomes have a section of staining particles, known as telomeres. The function of telomeres is to protect the integrity and stability of chromosomes. Normal cells once every split, telomeres will shorten some, after several splits, the telomere depleted, the cells will age, decline. The special feature of cancer cells, is that it has telomerase, the enzyme can protect telomeres in the cell division without loss, so telomeres is not shortened. Because of this, cancer cells can divide indefinitely.
Recent studies have shown that polysaccharides, peptides, enzymes, organic germanium and other components of Ganoderma lucidum extract can penetrate into cancer cells and form a covalent bond with telomere to destroy telomerase activity. Cancer cells in the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) once the loss of telomerase protection, each split once a shortened, and finally, the cancer cells will stop the division and apoptosis. This is another mechanism for the treatment of cancer.
Some scholars have pointed out that Ganoderma lucidum can accelerate the synthesis of nucleic acid in hematopoietic tissue, and promote the recovery of human hematopoietic function, enhance the number of white blood cells. Which in turn has come in handy for treating cancer. Cancer patients during chemotherapy, radiotherapy, often damage the bone marrow hematopoietic function, so that patients with a significant decline in white blood cells, Ganoderma lucidum can reduce the side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
Thus, Ganoderma lucidum and its preparations for the prevention of cancer have a positive effect, is one of the weapons to overcome cancer. But it should also be clearly seen that, at present, the treatment of cancer should be the first choice of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, only on Ganoderma lucidum is not enough. Before and after surgery, or chemotherapy and radiotherapy at the same time, the application of Ganoderma lucidum, can not only enhance the effect of anti-cancer, but also reduce the side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, after all, is a good choice.More Anti Cancer Effects for Ganoderma Lucidum Scientific research and development , please check here
