Alternative Therapy: Yoga, the Best Practice for Treatment of Anxiety

Kyle J. Norton 


People who participated in yoga class are likely to experience less or lower levels of anxiety, some studies suggested.

Yoga, the ancient technique for harmonized external and internal body well being, through breath control, meditation, bodily movement and gesture..... has been best known for people in Western world and some parts in Asia due to health benefits reported by various respectable institutes' research and supported by health advocates.

Anxiety is a mental disorder characterized by worry about future events and fear to current events.

According to the controlled random clinical trial sampling of 45 mastectomized women treated at the Ilza Bianco outpatient service of Santa Rita de Cássia Hospital in the Brazilian state of Espírito Santo from March to November 2010, group participated in 6 yoga-applied sessions showed a statistically significant in decreased anxiety levels measured by Anxiety Trait and State Test.

Anxiety Trait and State Test is a psychological inventory 40 self-report items used for testing of anxiety effect with an aim to measure anxiety at both poles of the normal affect curve known as state vs. trait.

In deed, yoga participants showed a significant improvement in reducing perceived anxiety, by decreasing physiological and psychological arousal such as the heart rate, blood pressure, relaxation and calmness and easing respiration thus ameliorating to stress in induction of anxiety.

Further analysis, regular yoga exercise including breathing technique, meditation not only provide participants the positive mind in maintained state of calmness and relaxation in deal events without getting restless and confusion but also induced recovery from anxiety.

Dr. Bernardi ML, the lead author of the study said, "hatha yoga exercises decrease stress and anxiety in the experimental group. No connection between confounding variables and anxiety and stress levels was found".

Hatha yoga is one form of yoga practice containing physical exercises and breathing control.

More importantly, according to the data collection period and meditation program between January 9 and August 31, 2009 in 46 women who were pregnant following IVF, and were between 12-20 weeks gestation, participated in the study (23 experimental group, 23 control group), women pregnant after IVF participated in yoga class showed statistically significant improvements in stress, anxiety, labor pain, and labor confidence.

In fact,  yoga in improvements of stress, anxiety, labor pain, and labor confidence, besides decreasing physiological and psychological arousal also enhanced women's sense of control and confidence in giving birth as well as stay away from negative thinking of the pregnancy outcome.

IVF, is  a medical procedure characterized by egg fertilized outside the mother womb.

Interestingly, in a total of 46 participants completed both a resistance exercise class and yoga class in a counterbalanced order. with measurement of body satisfaction and social physique anxiety were completed immediately before and after each class, group participated in yoga class displayed a greater improvements of body image and reducing state social physique anxiety.

In other words, by focusing on  breathing, the connection of the mind and body, participation in yoga class was found to associate with decreased state social physique anxiety caused by negative attitude of body image and increased in body satisfaction.

In patients suffered from chronic diseases, according to the Journal ofi Clinical Research & Bioethics,, yoga attendees benefited from stimulation of immune functions in reduced physical symptoms by induced over expression of human β-defensin 2 (HBD-2), natural killer (NK) cells, and anti inflammatory mytokines, thus, decreasing stress and/or anxiety symptoms and improving quality of life.

Taking together, yoga may be a best treatment for people with anxiety through improvement of social, mental and body confidence in reduced state of over worriness, particular in people with stress.

Herbal Therapy: Green Tea (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in Attenuated Risk and Treatment of Gastric Cancer

Kyle J. Norton (Scholar, Master of Nutrients, All right reserved)

Green tea with plenty bioactive phytochemicals may have a direct impact in reduced risk and treatment of gastric cancer, some researchers suggested.

Gastric cancer is a medical condition characterized by uncontrollably growth of cells in the gastric tissues. At the late stage, the cancerous cells may infect other organs and tissue a distance away from the original site

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

According to medical literature published online, in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) over expression in formation of new blood vessel to provide nutrients and fluids for the survival of gastric cancer, application of green tea (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) restricted  the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) induced VEGF in stimulated signal protein in transmitted alternated DNA transcript and activated suppression of anti cell apoptosis transcription 3 (Stat3).

Oral administration of green tea extract decreased levels of IL-6, VEGF overexpression in doses depending manner.

In compared to healthy individual, IL-6, VEGF expression were found to increase more than 2.4-fold  in patients with gastric cancer. 

In fact, the chemical compound exhibited anti cancer progressive activity by blocking the process of complex sequence of VEGF expression in transferring faulty DNA transcription to signal proliferation of cancer cells through mRNA in protein synthesis.

In other words, green tea inhibited the progression of cancer development induced by over expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was total depended EGCG's DNA biding activity and inhibition of Stat proteins in differentiated cytoplasm into the nucleus, the important step in initiation of cancer progression.

Further analysis, according to experiments in vitro and vitro, EGCG also expressed a significant effect in the reduced the IL-6 properties in stimulated vascular endothelial cells in promoted cancer cells proliferation and formation.

After taking into account of other con founders, Dr.  Zhu BH, the lead author said, "EGCG inhibits IL-6-induced VEGF expression and angiogenesis via suppressing Stat3 activity in gastric cancer, which has provided a novel mechanistic insight into the anti-angiogenic activity of EGCG".

Additionally, researchers in further illustration of the effect of EGCG (0, 5, 10, 25 or 50 μmol/L), in human gastric cancer cells (AGS) caused by IL-6 (50 μg/L)  suggested that interleukin 6 (IL-6)over expression not only significantly increased VEGF expression in AGS gastric cancer cells, but also increased function of mRNA expression by more than 2.4 in the process to initiated tumor development, in dose depending manner.

Truly, treatment of bioactive EGCG with  doses of 0, 5, 10, 25 or 50 μmol/L demonstrated a therapeutic activities in reduced the release protein of  VEGF to stimulated and mRNA expression of alternated transcript.

In compared to AG490, a Stat3 pathway inhibitor used for treatment of gastric cancer, green tea EGCG blocked the sequence of transcript transferred step in induced expression of pSTAT3 in proliferation of cells and tumor tissues without causing change in STAT3 gene.

In 5-FU resistance of GC SGC7901/FU and MGC803/FU, gastric cancer cell lines, injection of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) displayed a significantly suppressed the proliferation and tumor growth through reversed the 5-FU resistance of GC cells thorough inhibited the P-glycoprotein 1  (MDR1) and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) also also known as multidrug resistance proteins in transmitted transcript in obstructing cell internalization of chemotherapeutic agents and developing transporter mediated resistance by cancer cells during anti-tumor treatments.

Taking altogether, green tea bioactive (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) may be considered as a potential agent in reduced risk of angiogenesis and a secondary and adjunct treatment in combined with standard chemotherapy in treatment of gastric cancers.

Alternative Therapy: Yoga in Reduced Risk and Complications of Preeclampsia in High Risk Pregnancy

Kyle J. Norton

Yoga participated may have a profound and strong implication in reduced risk of of complications and improvement of pregnancy outcome in high risk pregnancy, some studies suggested

Preeclampsia is a medical condition characterized with abnormal high blood pressure during pregnancy which is one major risk factor in interference with pregnancy outcome, negatively.

Yoga, the ancient technique practice for harmonized external and internal body well being, through breath control, meditation, bodily movement and gesture..... has been well known for people in Western world and some parts in Asia due to health benefits reported by various respectable institutes' research and supported by health advocates.

According to study of 68 high-risk pregnant women recruited from two maternity hospitals in Bengaluru, India randomly assigned into yoga and control groups with yoga group (n=30) received standard care plus one-hour yoga sessions, three times a week, from the 12th to the 28th week of gestation and the control group (n=38) received standard care plus conventional antenatal exercises (walking) during the same period, women in yoga + standard care showed a significant fewer pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH)

The risk of pre-eclampsia on yoga group showed a ratio of 0,042 in compared to control.

Furthermore, high risk pregnancy women participated maternal yoga also expressed a significant lower syndromes of preeclampsia, ...... and improved pregnancy outcome.

In support to the above differentiation, the study of 121 women attending antenatal clinic at Gunasheela Surgical and Maternity Hospital (GSMH) in Bangalore, India, with abnormal Doppler study of umbilical and uterine arteries and between 18-20 weeks of pregnancy. Out of 121 participants, 68 women randomly assigned to the yoga group and 53 women to control group, after taking into account of other confounders, researchers suggested that women practiced physical postures, breathing and meditation showed a strong improvement in occurrence of complications of pregnancy, including hypertension.

Further analysis also indicated that yoga score a higher outcome in all aspects including high risk pregnancy-induced intrauterine growth retardation, pre-term delivery, particularly hypertension, in compared to non yoga group.

Indeed, maternal and regular yoga exercise improved outcome of high risk pregnancy was attributed to the function in ameliorated metabolic syndrome risk, that has been found to associate to the development of pre-eclampsia risk and exaggerated pre-eclampsia complications through enhancing production of antioxidant in inhibited reactive oxygen species in initiated oxidative stress which can cause cellular dysfunction.

Additionally, yoga also has an implication in improved cellular immunomodating activity, thus reducing risk of auto immune diseases caused by over expression pro inflammatory cytokins which play an important role in control of cell growth, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and apoptosis.

More interestingly, in the study of group of women to investigate the correlation of high risk of complication of impaired placentation and inadequate trophoblast invasion in first trimester uterine artery resistance, by randomly assigned 59 high-risk pregnant women into yoga (n = 27) and control (n = 32) groups, scientists showed that yoga group showed significantly higher values in the (28th week) for biparietal diameter, head circumference, femur length, and estimated fetal weight measured by  RM-ANOVA assay in compared to control.

Repeated Measures (RM)ANOVA is a technique used to test the equality of means in comparison three or more groups, with the same numbers of participants.

Additionally, researchers also indicated that women in yoga group demonstrated a strong improvement of the resistance index in the right uterine artery, umbilical artery, and fetal middle cerebral artery and lower impedance.

In fact, the improved blood circulation, strengthen fetus artery and prevented initiated pre-eclampsia and pre-eclampsia complications of regular yoga practice showed a significantly reduced risk of impaired placentation and cytotrophoblastic stem cell differentiation into extravillous cytotrophoblasts (EVCT) with invasive properties.

According to statistic 7% of  impaired placentation and inadequate trophoblast invasion in first trimester uterine artery resistance were associated to condition of pre-eclampsia and pre-eclampsia complications in high risk pregnancy women.

Taking altogether, there is no doubt that yoga may be considered as adjunct therapy used combined with standard treatment in attenuated risk of complications and improved favorable pregnancy outcome in high risk pregnancy women.

Food Therapy: Beet or Beet Root, the Function Food in Prevention and Treatment of Prostate Cancer

Kyle J. Norton


Prostate Cancer is a medical condition characterized by irregular cell growth and multiplied disorderly in the prostate tissues.

Beet, best known as the beetroot or garden beet, belonging to the amaranth family, is a perennial plant with leafy stems growing to 1–2 m tall.

Red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) may have a profound effect in reduced risk and treatment of prostate cancer, some studies suggested.

According to the Howard University, red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) extract (B), approved by Food and Drug Administration and European Union, in drinking water may be safe and used as cancer chemopreventive effect in humans.

Intake of the extract showed a significant effect in reduced synergistic antiproliferative activity against prostate (PC-3) tumor cells of human origin.

When combined anticancer drug doxorubicin (D), the combination acted synergistically in expression of cytotoxicity against prostate cancer at ratio of 1:5.

In a total of 24 patients (mean age 68+/-8 years) with hormone-resistant and metastatic prostate cancer treated with taxan chemotherapy, given twice 10 g daily for 1 month of natural table beet product come from commercial service, intake of beet juice showed a sgnificant effect in control of the progression of prostate cancer in promoted life expectancy and reduced toxicity side effect induced by conventional chemo-drug.

The efficacy may be contributed by the mediated activities of phytochemicals in the juice in inhibition of inflammatory through expression of production of antioxidants.

The study also suggested that moderate and permanent consumption of table beet products may favorably affect the life expectancy of prostate cancer patients.

Furthermore, in the testing extract of red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.), the FDA approved red food color E162,against vrious caner cell lines, researchers at the Howard University found that the extract showed a significant cytotoxicity in decrease the growth rate of the PC-3 cells, although lesser in compared to doxorubicin, a chemo medicine( (8.6% vs. 100%, respectively, at 29 µg/ml concentration of each, three-day test period).

The study also suggested that betanin, the major betacyanin constituent found in beetroot, may be phytochemicals responsible for the cytotoxicity.

This findings showed that beet root may be used as functional food to reduced risk of early onset and treatment of prostate cancer. And reduced adverse toxicity when used combination with chemo drugs.

Herbal Therapy: Green Tea Epigallocatechin Gallete (EGCG) and Theaflavin (TF) in Ameliorated Risk and Treatment of Liver Cancer

Kyle J. Norton (Scholar, Master of Nutrients, All right reserved)

Green tea may have a sustainable and positive effect in reduced risk and treatment of liver cancer, Some studies suggested

Liver cancer is a medical condition caused by cell growth disorderly and uncontrollably in the liver tissues. At the later stage, the cancerous cells may travel a distance away to infect other healthy organs and tissues.

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

In the review of medical literature published online, green tea bioactive phytochemicals such as Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and Theaflavin (TF), in prevention and treatment of liver cancer have been postulated by several mechanisms.

In liver cancer, animal model induced by chronic exposure of N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA), a carcinogenic and mutagenic organic compound, application of green tea bioactive compounds Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and Theaflavin (TF) demonstrated a strong effect in reduced initiation of cancer formation and  potential chemopreventive effect in pre and post treatment of the injected animal.

Further observation showed that EGCG/TF action in restrain the over expression of liver cancer also found to modulate similarly to those of CD44-specific cell membrane binding combined with near-infrared irradiation in induction of cellular apoptosis.

High CD44-positive expression is found to associate to acute cancer cells killing.

The restriction processes of EGCG/TF in modification of onset of liver cancer development, was also found to modify multiple biogenesis involved maintaining a relatively stable equilibrium in organs tissues(self-renewal Wnt/β-catenin, Hh/Gli1 pathways) in gene with implication of cell cycle progression, apoptosis and cellular transformation and cell differentiation and proliferation(Cyclin D1, cMyc and EGFR) and tumor suppressor (E-cadherin) during the carcinogenesis processes.

Additional illustration also indicated that the therapeutic efficacy of tea polyphenols epigallocatechin gallete (EGCG) and theaflavin (TF) also regulated the proteins expression of cell differentiation, polarity and proliferation(the self-renewal Wnt and Hedgehog (Hh) pathways).during CCl4/N-nitosodiethylamine-induced mouse liver carcinogenesis.

Application of green tea bioactive tea polyphenols epigallocatechin gallete (EGCG) and theaflavin (TF) induced chemo preventive potential in maintain cell integrity at the 30 weeks of CCl4/N-nitosodiethylamine application.

Continuous administration of EGCG/TF exerted a strong impact in reduced proliferation and increased apoptosis, as well as decreased function of hepatic progenitor cells (HPCs) in participated restoration of the cancerous liver tissue and population with cancer stem cell-like characteristics in liver carcinoma observed by AFP and CD44 expression.in CCl4/N-nitosodiethylamine-induced mouse liver carcinogenesis.

More interestingly, also during the restriction processes of EGCG/TF, the bioactive compounds also modulated the expression of tumor progression to a more invasive phenotype(phospho-β-catenin-Y-654), tumor suppressor(β-catenin), the proliferation, migration and invasion of liver cancer gene(sFRP1 ) and gene in control tumor suppressor(β-catenin).

In other words, green tea EGCG/TF inhibited the contaminated cells inflicted by injection of CCl4/N-nitosodiethylamine to prevent the initiation of liver cancer through modulation of certain gene expressions involved in liver cancer progression.

In short, the inhibition of liver carcinogenesis by EGCG/TF was attributed to reduction in hepatocyte progenitor cell and stem cell population in restored liver cancerous cells damage through various mechanisms indicated above.

Taken together, green tea bioactive ingredients epigallocatechin gallete (EGCG) and theaflavin (TF) may be a useful secondary preventive agents for targeting liver cancer in combination with standard chemotherapies.

Herbal Therapy: Green Tea (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-O-Gallate (EGCG) For Prevention and Treatment of Melanoma

Kyle J. Norton (Scholar, Master of Nutrients, All right reserved)

Green tea may have a profound and sustainable effect in reduced risk and treatment of melanoma, some scientists suggested.

Melanoma, is a medical condition characterized by irregular cell growth of  pigment-containing cells known as melanocytes. At the later stage, the cancerous cells may travel a distance away to infect other healthy organs and tissues.

According to the study, approximately 7,200 Canadians will be diagnosed with melanoma skin cancer.

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

In the review of literature published online, green tea bioactice EGCG significantly inhibited the growth, migration and invasion of melanoma cells through numbers of mechanism.

Gene implications in initiated cancer development and cancerous cells proliferation have gone through extensive research, particularly in melanoma.

In melanoma, green tea biactice EGCG demonstrated a significant effect in knockdown gene over expression (TRAF6) in reduced migration and invasion of melanoma.

TRAF6 is a protein with function in activation of IkappaB kinase (IKK) in response to inflammation.

In fact, green tea biactive EGCG directly bind to TRAF6 in melanoma in attenuated the interaction of
between TRAF6 and UBC13(E2) in activated the protein (IkappaB kinase (IKK)) in production of pro inflammatory cytokins.

The ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme(UBC13(E2)) are essential in activation protein (NF- kappa B) in controls transcription of DNA, cytokine production and cell survival.

Furthermore, the phytochemicals also suppressed the TRAF6 E3 ubiquitin ligase activity of the tumor generated by TRAF6 in regulation of important biological processes, particularly, in cell division and for the survival of the tumors.

Additionally, green tea biactice EGCG also regulated the gene expression of proteins (IκBα and p-TAK1 e) in modulation and inactivated NF-κB-directed gene expression of inflammation, immunity, cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival in melanoma.

Dr. Zhang J, the lead author said, " EGCG is a novel E3 ubiquitin ligase inhibitor that could be used to target TRAF6 for chemotherapy or the prevention of melanoma".

Other researchers in focus of Green tea polyphenol (-)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG) effect in attenuated and treatment of melanoma in the gene implication via MicroRNAs (miRNAs, non-coding RNAs involved in various biological processes by regulating their target genes) also indicated that

Green tea polyphenol (-)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG) inhibited melanoma tumor growth by activating 67-kDa laminin receptor (67LR) signaling which has an function in down regulated tumor cell proliferation and tumor formation by inducing apoptosis.

The bioactive compound also up-regulated miRNA-let-7b expression in induced tumor suppressor function in decrease function of 67LR in enhanced invasive and metastatic melanoma cells.

Indeed, green tea EGCG-also displayed a significant effect in promote function of let-7b in altering the traits,of malignant cell in melanoma through regulating the expression of HMGA2.with action as DNA transcriptional regulator.

Green tea EGCG. also induced expression of  let-7b  in inhibitions of oncoproteins and activation of tumor suppressor via tumor-over expressed 67LR in activation of PP2A, a tumor suppressor. through adenylate cyclase/cAMP pathway in cell communication.

In compared the effects of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), a protein with function in in induced tumor cells apoptosis. and green tea bioactive EGCG for treatment of groups of melanoma.

In A375 melanoma cell line, TRAIL application group demonstrated a strong effect in inhibition with apoptosis rate was 11.8% at dose of 150ng/mL in compared to green tea EGCG treatment group of 5%-7% .

Interestingly, in combined TRAIL and green tea EGCG treatment groups, the inhibited rate increased sufficiently to 48.9 - 59.1%

Further analysis also found that EGCG effective in treatment of melanoma was attributed to activity of caspase-3 rather than caspase-8 in mediation of programmed cell death (apoptosis).

The findings suggest that by blocking the sequence of gene expression of tumor, green tea polyphenol (-)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG) may be considered as an adjunct combined with TRAIL for prevention and treatment of melanoma.

Green tea may have a strong and positive impact in reduced breast cancer development in women with mutated gene HER2, some scientists suggested.

Breast cancers with HER2 gene amplification or HER2 protein overexpression are called HER2-positive

HER2 is a protein that causes breast cancer cells to grow aggressively.

HER2-positive breast cancers tend to grow faster and are more likely to spread and come back in compared to HER2-negative breast cancers.

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

Breast cancer is a medical condition characterized by irregular cells growth in the breast tissues. At the late stage, cancerous cell may travel a distance away to infect other organs and tissues from original site.

The study of bioactive green tea polyphenol epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) was found to decrease progression of breast cancer cells with Her-2/neu over expression, through many mechanisms.

Application of green tea EGCG to Her-2/neu-driven mammary tumor cells showed a significant effect in  blocking over expression of key regulators in the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) pathway in induced invasive cell proliferation in breast outer layer tissues.

Additionally, the bioactive compound also inhibited Her-2/neu-driven mammary tumor cells by enhanced genes expression in related to tumor suppressor(epithelial genes E-cadherin, gamma-catenin) and promoted tumor cell cycle arrest(MTA3) and involved in the regulation of cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues(estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha)).

Further analysis the study also addressed the important role of green tea EGCG in inhibition of  Her-2/neu-driven mammary tumor cells through decreased the function of snail gene in expression of tumor cells proliferative activity.

In cell migration and invasion assays, green tea EGCG also restrained branching colony growth and invasion of Her-2/neu-driven mammary tumor cells

Interestingly, invasive and metastatic I phenotypes in mouse mammary tumor cells driven by over expression of protein in transmuted transcription of DNA, involved cell survival and a messenger-independent in protect against apoptotic tumor cells also inhibited by administration of green tea EGCG.

Furthermore, green tea EGCG treatment activated FOXO3a in triggered apoptosis of tumor cells and reversed the invasive characteristic of in ERalpha-positive breast cancer cells by blocking expression of protein of transforming growth factor beta in induced tumor cell growth, cell proliferation, cell differentiation.

Further differentiation of over expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor family member Her-2/neu in breast cancer, application of EGCG not only inhibited mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV)-Her-2/neu NF639 cell growth in culture and soft agar.but also ameliorated risk of basal Her-2/neu receptor tyrosine phosphorylation in contribution of exceptional oncogenic potency. via regulation of enzymes involved in cellular growth, proliferation, differentiation (phosphatidylinositol 3- kinase), and proteins in induced oncogenic transformation (Akt kinase to NF-kappaB pathway).

In SMF derived from mammary gland tumors and cultured and also epidermal growth factor receptor 4,  green tea EGCG inhibited the expression of a significantly higher phosphorylation state of basal receptor which display high constitutive Her-2/neu tumor.

Interestingly in the study of epigallocatechin-3 gallate (EGCG) effects in inhibited growth of Trastuzumab-resistant HER2-driven breast cancer cells, researchers found that  EGCG treatment in a dose-dependent inhibited trastuzumab-resistant BT474 human breast cancer cells, isolated by chronic trastuzumab exposure  and JIMT-1 breast cancer cells, by decreasing tumor growth, tumor cellular ATP production in absorption of chemical energy obtained from the breakdown of food molecules and releases it to fuel other cellular processes, and by inducing tumor cells apoptosis at high concentrations.

Most importantly, EGCG also suppressed multiple cellular processes such as glucose metabolism, apoptosis, cell proliferation, transcription and cell migration. of Akt activity, improved FOXO3a function in triggered apoptosis of tumor cells and elevated expression of anti tumor suppressor proteins. p27Kip1

Dr. Eddy SF , the lead author said, "EGCG in combination with trastuzumab may provide a novel strategy for treatment of HER2-over expressing breast cancers, given that EGCG can cross the blood-brain barrier".

Taking altogether, green tea with abundant bioactive polyphenol epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) may have therapeutic potential in reduced risk and progression of HER2 positive breast cancer, particularly when combined with other chemo-medicine.
