A product derived from grape seeds has proven effective in forcing and eradicating leukemia cells, and experts confirm that laboratory experiments demonstrated the commercially available ability to eliminate 76 percent of cancer cells and 24 hours after exposure. Through the process of self-destruction known scientifically Apoptosis without prejudice to healthy cells.
"What everyone wants is a tool that has a limited effect on cancer cells that are not right," said Professor Xianglin Shi of the University of Kentucky, who led the study. "The experiment shows that grape seed derived products fall into this category."
Grape seeds contain a number of antioxidant plant chemicals, including Resveratrol, known for its anti-cancer properties. Researchers believe the discovery could open the door to new promising treatments for leukemia, which for the moment have not identified the underlying causes. The possibility of multiple factors, viral genetic environmental and immune, involved in the infection.
This world exposed leukemia cells to varying doses of grape seed derivatives, and high doses showed a significant effect in pushing large numbers of cancer cells to suicide. The programmed apoptosis, or apotosis, is a natural way to get rid of destroyed or potentially carcinogenic cells, and when the self-destruct mechanism collapses, cancer cells begin to multiply.
The researchers found that the product derived from grape seeds strongly activates JNK protein, which helps regulate the self-destruction process. The researchers cautioned that it was too early to recommend eating grapes or taking derivatives to protect against cancer.
