Cancer is a class of chronic diseases caused by cell growth and multiplies disorderedly and uncontrollably in the body.
Cancer is a class of chronic diseases caused by cell growth and multiplies disorderedly and uncontrollably in the body.
Every day millions of cells grow to replace millions of dead cells to keep our body in balance and healthy. Sometimes, acceleration of cell growth is necessary to prevent further damage to the body organ, such as cuts, injuries, etc., but after fulfilling their purposes, the growth of cells is back to a normal rate again.
Under normal circumstances, cell growth is limited to several cycles before dying and replacing b new cells. However, in cancer, the invasive cell can grow indefinitely. In other words, the cancer cell ignores the cell growth inhibitor.
According to the statistics provided by the American Cancer Society, in 2019, 1,762,450 new cancer cases will be diagnosed in the US. The disease will also cause the death of 606,880 Americans in the same year.
Believe it or not, the study continued, "Over the past decade of data, the cancer incidence rate (2006-2015) was stable in women and declined by approximately 2% per year in men, whereas the cancer death rate (2007-2016) declined annually by 1.4% and 1.8%, respectively".
Depending on the type and grade of cancer, some cancers can be progressively worse and damage other healthy tissues. Sometimes cancers can spread to other tissues and organs in the body via lymph or blood.
The most common prevalent factors that induce cancer risk are
* Aging is a prevalent risk factor for cancer development as most patients with cancer are found in older adults. Some researchers suspected that free radicals may be one of the contributors.
* Tobacco use is associated with an increased risk of lung cancer, due to chemical-induced cells alternation
* Sunlight is the major cause of skin cancer,
*ionizing radiation: Any type of hazardous chemicals cause gene mutation
* Viral and bacterial infection
* Hormones: Abnormal production of certain hormones can increase the risk of sex-related cancers
* Family history.
Carcinoma cancer is the most common type of malignant tumor found in anywhere of the epithelial tissues lining the cavities, surfaces of structures, and glands, accounting for 90% of all cancer cases.
Betaxanthins are phytochemicals in the class of red and yellow indole-derived pigments, belonging to the group of Betalains, found abundantly in beets, Sicilian prickly pear, etc.
To find a potential compound for the treatment of inflammatory disease, researchers examined the anti-inflammatory effects of red beetroot betaxanthins.
Vitexin-2-O-xyloside found in beetroot, in combination with betaxanthins and betacyanins, exerted antiproliferative activity in breast, liver, colon, and bladder cancer cell lines.
This efficacy was attributed to the synergistic activity in inhibiting genes associated with pro-survivals, angiogenesis, and promoting apoptosis.
The combination inhibited the hypoxia-inducible factor 1A, which responded to the decrease in available oxygen in the cancer cellular environment.
These results strongly suggested that these phytochemicals enhance their anticancer activity through multi-target action.
According to the findings, researchers said, "Vitexin-2-O-xyloside, betaxanthins, and betacyanins can be combined with conventional anticancer drugs to reduce their toxicity and overcome the multidrug resistance of cancer cells".
Taken altogether, betaxanthins combined with other phytochemicals may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of cancer, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
