Cancer is a group of diseases associated with cells growing and multiplying disordered and uncontrollably in the tissue of a specific organ.
Over time, the alternation of the cell DNA on the surface of the inner lining tissue may become progressively worse by penetrating into deeper layers of the infected organs.
At the advanced stage, cells of most invasive tumors can spread to other organs in the body via lymph or blood.
The kidney is an essential organ of our body, that not only plays a critical role in the urinary system, but also regulates electrolytes, and blood pressure, maintains acid-base balance, and produces hormones calcitriol, renin, and erythropoietin.
In the urinary system, the kidney filters blood with billions of glomeruli by separating the cells of blood from plasma.
As the plasma passes into the tubules, some necessary substances are reabsorbed back into the blood, while other wastes, such as urea and ammonium are stored in the pelvis and then into the ureter to the bladder.
Renal cell carcinoma is the most common type of kidney cancer caused by malignant cells of the lining of the tubules in the kidney. Renal cell carcinoma tends first to spread to the lung, but it may also spread to lymph nodes and other organs as well.
Because of less nervousness in the kidney and location, patients in the early stage of renal cell carcinoma are asymptomatic. In other words, kidney tumors can grow without causing any pain and discomfort. The most common symptoms of kidney cancer are
* Abdominal pain that is dull and constant lasting for hours.
*Back pain that is dull and constant lasting for hours.
* Blood in the urine is a result of the break off of the tumor in the tubules.
* Unintentional weight loss
Any intentional weight loss of over 10% is one of the most common symptoms of cancer.
* Flank pain is a sensation of discomfort, distress, or agony around the back and side of the abdomen.
* Swelling and enlargement of the abdomen happens in approximately 15% of all cases of renal cell carcinoma.
*Anemia
If cancer has affected the function of erythropoietin in the production of hemoglobin.
* Varicocele enlargement is a result of the blockage of the left (right) testicular vein by tumor invasion of the left (right) renal vein.
*Hypertension is a result of the secretion of renin by the tumor.
If you experience some of the aforementioned symptoms persistently, please check with your doctor to rule out the possibility of kidney cancer
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as an anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, and wound healing agent, and for the treatment of flatulence, bloating, appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
In finding a potential ingredient for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma, researchers examined the combined treatment with natural compounds and NVP-BEZ235 in human renal carcinoma Caki cells.
Where NVP-BEZ235 is an inhibitor of signaling pathways associated with the development of kidney tumors.
According to the tested analysis, curcumin markedly induced apoptosis in NVP-BEZ235-treated cells.
Co-treatment with curcumin and NVP-BEZ235 led to the down-regulation of Mcl-1 protein expression Involved the regulation of apoptosis and survival of cancer cells but not mRNA expression in tested cells.
Furthermore, the co-administration also inhibited the protein associated with the anti-apoptotic activity of Bcl-2.
Interestingly, in colon cancer cell line analysis, Combined treatment with NVP-BEZ235 and curcumin reduced Bcl-2 expression in wild-type p53 HCT116 human colon carcinoma cells but not p53-null HCT116 cells.
In skin cells, NVP-BEZ235 combined with curcumin did not have a synergistic effect on normal human skin fibroblasts and normal human mesangial cells.
Based on the findings, researchers suggested that curcumin combined with the NVP-BEZ235 induced human renal carcinoma Caki cells apoptosis by regulating the protein associated with anti-apoptosis accompanied by blocking the activation of proliferative signaling pathways.
Taken together, turmeric processed abundantly bioactive compound curcumin may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of kidney cancer, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of turmeric in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.
