Cervical cancer in Herbs' Points of View
Kyle J. Norton
Cervical cancer is malignant neoplasm of the cervix uteri or cervical area caused by abnormal cells growth with alternation of cells DNA. According to the American Cancer Society's, in 2014, 12,360 new cases of invasive cervical cancer will be diagnosed with the death of 4,020 patients. The risk of cervical cancer is higher in Hispanic women followed by African-Americans, Asians and Pacific Islanders, and whites(a).
Depending to the stage and grade of the cancer, if the cancer is found in the early stahe, hysterectomy may not be needed. Other while after sugery, chemotherapy including Cisplatin, Fluorouracil (5-FU), Mitomycin, Paclitaxel, Ifosfamide, Carboplatin, Bevacizumab and radiotherapy may be necesary, but with certain side effects. Emerging suggestion of a healthy and balanced diet to improve high serum levels of antioxidants may reduce cervical neoplasia risk(b)(c) but other suggested that the role of diet and nutrition in the etiology of cervical cancer is not yet resolved(d) and Catalan Institute of Oncology study showed statistically nonsignificant inverse associations were also observed for leafy vegetables, root vegetables, garlic and onions, citrus fruits, vitamin C, vitamin E and retinol for invasive squamous cervical cancer (ISC)(e).
Epidemiological studies, linking herbal medicine in reduced risk of cervical cancer have not been consistent. But certain herbs and spice may be effective in treating cervical caner(1) with little or no side effects.
1. Peony root
Bai Shao also known as White Peony Root, the bitter sour and cool herb has been used in TCM as anti-spastic, anticonvulsant, analgesic, sedative, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, antibiotic agent and to lower blood pressure, dilates peripheral blood vessels etc., as it nourishes Blood and liver, preserves the Yin, clams pain;, etc., by promoting the function of liver and spleen channels.
Chi Shao or Chi Shao Yao is also known as Red Peony Root, the bitter, sour and cool herb has been used in TCM to anti-spastic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, antibiotic, anticonvulsant, analgesic, sedative agnet and to lower blood pressure, dilate peripheral blood vessels, coronary arteries, treat viral hepatitis, chronic constipation, asthma, whooping coughs, diabetes, etc., as it clears Heat, cools Blood, eliminates Blood accumulation, calms paindilates, etc., by enhancing the functions of liver and spleen channels.
Paeoniflorin (PF), the principal bioactive chemical compound from the peony root, inhibited human cervical cancer cell line (HeLa) cells, through a decrease in the expression of Bcl-2 and increase the expression of Bax and caspase-3 genes(2)(3).

It has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, etc.
Polysaccharide(APS-1d) isolated from Angelica sinensis, induced apoptosis of human cervical cancer cell line through regulation of Bcl-2 family protein expression, a decrease in the mitochondrial membrane potential, and an increase in the cytosolic cytochrome c levels(4).
3. Asparagus
Asparagus is a flowering plant belong to species the genus Asparagus, native to the western coasts of northern Spain, north to Ireland, Great Britain, and northwest Germany, northern Africa and western Asia. Asparagus has been used from early times as a vegetable and medicine, because of its delicate.
Formononetin, is an O-methylated isoflavone found in Astragalus, in doses depending manner induced the apoptosis of CC cell line HeLa through inhibited the phosphorylation of AKT(5).
4. Licorice
Licorice (Glycyrrhiza Glabra) also known as sweetwood, is the genus Glycyrrhiza, belonging to the family Fabaceae, native to the Mediterranean and certain areas of Asia. The herb has been used in traditional medicine to treat skin diseases, coughs, constipation, bronchitis, inflammation, arthritis, etc.
In cervical cancer Ca Ski cells, Isoliquiritigenin, a constituent of licorice induced apoptosis of the cancer cell line through down regulation of HPV(Human papillomavirus) 16 E6 expression associated with an increase of p53(tumor suppressor) and p21(cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor) levels, enhanced expression of Bax and decreased expression of Bcl-2 and Bid, triggering dissipation of the mitochondrial membrane potential, released cytochrome c to the cytosol followed by activation of caspase cascade with cleavage of caspase-9, caspase-3, and PARP. Caspase-8.(6) or through G2/M phase arrest was also associated with decreases in the amounts of cyclin B, cyclin A, cdc2, and cdc25C, and increases in the phosphorylation of Chk2, cdc25C, and cdc2.(7). Other chemical constituent Liquiritigenin (LQ), inhibited the growth of tumors xenografted in nude mice from human cervical cancer cell line HeLa cells, in a dose dependent manner(8).
5. Turmeric
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 anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, wound healing agent, and to treat flatulence, bloating, and appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
Curcumin, a polyphenol extracted from turmeric, decreased survival after IR in HeLa cells via induced increased reactive oxygen species (ROS), sustained activation of ERK1/2(9). Human MDR-1 gene expression in multidrug resistant human cervical carcinoma cell line was inhibited by bisdemethoxycurcumin isolated from turmeric(10). Other extract NBFR-03,, exhibited a arrest low-grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia (LSIL) a 12 week(11). according to the effect of curcumin on HPV-positive and negative cervical cancer cell lines HeLa, SiHa, CaSki, and C33A pretreated with estradio, conducted by All India Institute of Medical Science, showed a positive effects of curcumin in counteracted the proliferative response of estradiol, and induce apoptosis(12).
6. Aloe vera
Aloe Vera is species of succulent plant in the genus Aloe, belonging to the Family Xanthorrhoeaceae, native to Sudan. It has become very popular for commercial cultivation due to its health benefits. Aloe vera has been used in herbal medicine in treating many kinds of disease, including wound, burn healing, minor skin infections, sebaceous cysts, diabetes, and elevated of cholesterol, etc. It is also one of many popular herbs studied in scientific ways with some conflicted results.
Aloe emodin, a major chemical constituent of Aloe vera, inhibited the growth of human cervical cancer cell line, HeLa cells in a dose-dependent manner, through cycle arrest and decreased cyclin A and CDK2, and increased in cyclin B1 and CDK1expression(13). Aloin, another chemical compound from the herb, exerted a pronounced antiproliferative effect through cell cycle arrest in the S phase and induced increased HeLaS3 cell apoptosis(14). Rhein-aloe-emodin hybrid molecule (RH-AE), a synthetic version of from rhein and aloe-emodin, inhibited the human ovarian cancer SK-OV-3 in lesser effective than those of rhein and aloe-emodin(15).
8. Rhubarb (Rheum palmatum L.)
Rhubarb is a small flower grouped with large compound leafy in the the genus Rheum, belonging to the family Polygonaceae. The herb has been used in traditional medicine as laxative agent, reduce inflammation and treat diarrhea, dysentery blood clots, tumor red and painful eyes abdominal-distention and/or pain blood in stool hemorrhoidal bleeding urination: burning sensation, absence of menses, etc.
Emodin (1,3,8-trihydroxy-6-methylanthraquinone), a chemical compound isolated from Rhubarb, induced apoptosis of human cervical cancer cells through the mitochondrial pathway, via activation of caspases-3, -9 and cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase(16) or through the intrinsic mitochondrial and extrinsic death receptor pathways(17).
10. Grape Seed Extract
Grape Seed Extract is the commercial extracts from whole grape seeds that contains many concentrations, including vitamin E, flavonoids, linoleic acid, oligomeric proanthocyanidins(OPCs), etc..The herb has been used in traditional medicine as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory agents and to treat skin wounds with less scarring, allergies, macular degeneration, arthritis, enhance circulation of blood vessels, lower cholesterol, etc.
Grape Seed Proanthocyanidins (GSPs) showed to inhibited the human cervical cancer cell line Hela weaker than those of human leukemia K562 cells(18). Gallic acid (GA) , a major chemical compound of grape seed extract, induced HeLa cell death in relation to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and glutathione (GSH) levels(19)(20).
11. Garlic
Garlic (Allium sativum) is a species in the onion genus, belonging to family Amaryllidaceae, native to central Asia. It has been used popularly in traditional and Chinese medicine in treating common cold and flu to the Plague, blood pressure cholesterol levels, natural antibiotic, etc.
Diallyl sulfide (DAS), a chemical component of garlic induced mitochondrial dysfunction, leading to the release of cytochrome c for causing apoptosis in human cervical cancer Ca Ski cells(21) and cell cycle arrest and apoptosis through the p53, caspase- and mitochondria-dependent pathways in in HeLa human cervical cancer cells(22). The Defense Food Research Laboratory study indicated that Garlic exerted its anticarcinogenic effect(including cervical cancer) through a number of mechanisms, including scavenging of radicals, increasing gluathione levels, increasing the activities of enzymes(23). In 3-methylcholanthrene (MCA)-induced carcinogenesis in the uterine cervix of virgin young adult Swiss albino mice study, found a significant decline in the incidence of carcinoma with oral administration of garlic at the dose level of 400 mg/kg body wt./day for 2 weeks before and 4 weeks following carcinogen thread insertion(24).

Other study found that the chemical compound also exerted its anti proliferative effect of human cervical cell line (HeLa) through inhibition of hypoxia-induced HIF-1alpha accumulation and HIF-1 transcriptional activity in human cervical (HeLa)(29)
14. Cat's claw
Cat's claw found in in the tropical jungles of South and Central America, is a genus Uncaria, belonging to the family Rubiaceae. It has been used in traditional medicine over two thousand years as a tonic, contraceptive, anti-inflammatory and infectious agent, and to treat diarrhea, rheumatic disorders, acne, diabetes, cancer and diseases of the urinary tract, etc..
According to the study at Polish Academy of Sciences, extract of Uncaria tomentosa in doses dependent manner, inhibited the proliferation of cervical carcinoma(30).
Taking altogether, without going into reviews, the list of herbal medicines above has showed effectively in reduced risk and treatment of cervical cancer. But larger sample size and multi centers studies to validate the effectiveness through identification of the principle ingredients are necessary. As always, all articles written by Kyle J.

Asthma in vitamin B12 points of view
The widespread of incidence of asthma over large 20 years in South East
Asian population, specially in children and aging group has caused some
concerns to the government and scientific community. It may be due to
over intake in artificial ingredients, polluted environment as well as
intake foods triggering the inflammatory allergens.
Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, a water-soluble vitamin, found abundantly in a variety of foods, such as fish, shellfish, meat, eggs, dairy products, etc. plays an important role in regulating the functions of nervous system and formation of blood.
The conflict results
Epidemiological studies, linking vitamin B12 in reduced risk and treatment of asthma have produced inconclusive results. Some researchers through searching the data base of asthma studies suggested that insufficient evidence exists to recommend supplementation with any vitamin or nutrient acting as a methyl donor to prevent or treat asthma(1). Other found the conflict results in the associated risk of the disease(2). Other insisted no correlation between vitamin B12 intake and risk of asthma or atopy(3). Intake of vitamin B12 during pregnancy may effect the incidence of asthma and asthmatic symptoms of offspring, but according to the Osaka Maternal and Child Health study, there was no correlation between maternal consumption of folate, vitamin B(12) , vitamin B(6) , and vitamin B(2) during pregnancy and the risk of wheeze or eczema in the offspring(4).
Because of limitation of quantity of the studies in the data base to determine the risk of dietary intake of vitamin B12' effect on asthmatics. We recommend the use of vitamin B12 with care in pregnancy. As always, over doses of the vitamin B12 may induce symptoms of toxicity, including headache, giddiness and abnormal heart functioning, etc., please make sure to follow the guideline of the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies.
