Lung cancer is defined as a condition of the abnormal growth of the cells in the lung's tissue.
The most common form of primary lung cancer is derived from epithelial cells. In the Us, Lung cancer causes the death of 158,683 people, including 88,329 men and 70,354 women, according to the 2007 statistic.
Believe it or not, each year, more people die of lung cancer than of colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined.
Most people diagnosed with lung cancer are 65 or older, compared to a very small number of those younger than 45.
Non-small cell lung cancer is the most common type of lung cancer. It usually grows and spreads methodically and predictably.
The most common types of lung cancers include
* Squamous-cell carcinoma is a type of NSCLC often found in an outer area of the lung.
* Large-cell carcinoma is a type of NSCLC found in the center of the lung by an air tube.
* Adenocarcinoma is a type of NSCLC found in any part of the lung.
The 5 years of the survival rate of never and ever smokers in patients with stage I is 92%, compared to 76%, in smokers.
The 5-year recurrence-free proportions (RFPs) for never and ever smokers were 89% compared to 80%, in smokers.
Ursolic acid is a phytochemical in the subclass of Triterpenoid, belongings to the group of Terpenes found abundantly in apples, basil, bilberries, cranberries, peppermint, lavender, oregano, hawthorn, prunes., etc.
On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of chronic diseases, researchers examined the effect of ursolic acid (UA) on the stemness of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. According to the analysis of the NSCLC cells with paclitaxel resistance (A549-PR) which exhibited a remarkably stronger stemness than the parental A549 cells,* UA administration significantly reduced the stemness and paclitaxel resistance of A549-PR cells.
* UA inhibited the miR-149-5p/MyD88 signaling in the promotion of cancer cell resistance and was responsible for UA-mediated effects on the stemness of A549-PR cells.
After talking about other factors into account, researchers said, "UA could attenuate the stemness and chemoresistance of NSCLC cells through targeting miR-149-5p/MyD88 axis".
Taken altogether, Ursolic acid may be considered adjunct therapies in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of tocopherols in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.
