The Herbal Extract That Kills Gastric/Stomach Cancer Cells, Scientists Found

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


By Kyle J. Norton

Scientists may have found a chemical constituent isolated from Andrographis paniculata, for reduced risk and treatment of gastric cancer, a respectable institute study suggested.

Gastric/Stomach cancer is condition of abnormal growth of the mucus-producing cells of the inside lining of the stomach.

Adenocarcinoma is the most common type of gastric cancer.

The causes of gastric cancer id debatable, but some researchers suggested that people with chronic 
gastrointestinal reflux disease (GERD), a condition caused by frequent backflow of stomach acid into the esophagus, is the most likely to develop the disease(4).

 

Other diseases associated to the early onset of gastric cancer are obesity and smoking(4).

 

According to the Universidad de Salamanca, bacteria and virus, including Helicobacter pylori are strongly associated to chronic gastritis, clinical syndromes, precancerous lesions, and pathogenesis of gastric cancer development(5).

 

If you experience some of below symptoms such as feeling bloated after eating, feeling full after only eating small amounts of food,  persistent heartburn and severe indigestion,stomach pain,…. and persistent vomiting, please check with you doctor right the way(4).

 

Tests for patients with high risk of gastric cancer or patients showed signs and symptoms of the disease may normally include upper endoscopy (also called esophagogastroduodenoscopy or EGD).

 

However, picture captured during the exam may be misdiagnosis as an ulcer, a mushroom-shaped or  linitis plastica.

 

Therefore, if the suspicious area is found, endoscopic ultrasound may be necessary to rule out the cancer onset possibility.

 

Most importantly, in compared to antioxidant effects in patient with H. pylori gastritis and gastric cancer, researchers found that concentration of serum superoxide dismutase and serum malondialdehyde that exhibit oxidative stress caused by over expression of free radicals are significantly higher and plasma ascorbic acid, the antioxidants is significantly lower in gastric cancer patients.
 

These results suggested gastric cancer is also associated to the imbalance of ratio of antioxidants produced by the host enzymes and free radical accumulation, leading to elevated ROS that cause oxidative stress in alternated DNA of gastric cells through cytotoxicity.

According to Canadian cancer society, in 2017(6), an estimated:
* 3,500 Canadians were diagnosed with stomach cancer.

* 2,100 Canadians died from stomach cancer.

* 2,200 men were diagnosed with stomach cancer and 1,250 died from it.

* 1,300 women were diagnosed with stomach cancer and 790 died from it.

Andrographis paniculata is also known as Andrographis is a herbaceous plant, genus Andrographis, belonging to the family Acanthaceae, native to India and Sri Lanka.

The herb has been used in traditional Siddha and Ayurvedic for treatment of common cold, flu, upper respiratory infections, infectious diseases, diarrhea, dysentery, cholera, pneumonia,….

According to the joint study lead by the Chosun University, Andrographolide, a natural compound isolated from Andrographis paniculata, exerted a potentiated apoptosis and reduction of the ability of a cell to form clones triggered by recombinant human tumor necrosis factor of signaling systemic inflammation involved immune stimulation.

The study also found that Andrographolide enhances TRAIL(a protein functioning as a ligand in regulated the process of cell death)-induced apoptosis through interfering of cell division through a protein functioning involved the process of cell death and ROS generation in gastric cancer.

Dr. Lim SC, the lead author said, “Exposure of GC cells to andrographolide altered the expression level of several growth-inhibiting and apoptosis-regulating proteins, including death receptors”.

Also in support of the analysis of the effects of Andrographis on gastric cancer, the First Affiliated Hospita study suggested, the effect of andrographolide on suppressed on adhesion of gastric cancer cells to the activated endothelial cells are the result of blocking E-selectin(an antigen) expression in response to cancer cells that infiltrate the inflammatory system.

In three gastric cancer cell lines (SGC7901, MGC803, BGC823), with Application of Andrographis significantly decreased gastric cancer cells adherence to stimulated endothelial cells by inhibited the E-selectin expression that activated cytokines of the immune system.

Taking together, Andrographis paniculata with high levels of Andrographolide, may be used as a therapeutically promising product for reduced risk and treatment of gastric cancer.

However, further data collection on large sample size and multi centers clinical studies performed with human consumption during the course of the investigation will be necessary to complete the picture of  Andrographis and its bioactive compounds protective effect against gastric cancer  possibilities.

Intake of  Andrographis paniculata supplement should be taken with exceptional care as over doses may cause acute liver toxicity.
