Frog Skin Cancer Cure Capable

TRIBUNNEWS.COM, LONDON - New research shows positive results upon the discovery of new classes of drugs from certain types of frog skin to a number of chronic diseases and severe. Thanks to these findings, the scientists at Queen's University, Belfast, Ireland North, received awards for their research. Results research that shows certain frog skin can be beneficial to 70 treatment of major diseases.
The scientists were awarded to medical discoveries, the Medical Futures Innovation Awards, in London on Monday (06/06/2011). Research led by Professor Chris Shaw in Higher Education Pharmacy Queen's were found two types of proteins that can regulate how blood vessels grow. The research team is the only Northern Ireland team participate in the race to win the award this year. They found that the protein of certain types of toads (frogs of the species monkey frog) can inhibit the growth of blood vessels and can
used to kill tumor cells. Professor Shaw said that most tumor cells can only grow up to a certain size before it requires blood vessel cells to grow into the tumor in order to deliver nutrients and oxygen substances very important. "Stopping the growth of blood vessels will reduce the likelihood spread of tumors and could be going to kill the tumor, "he said. "This has the potential to transform cancer from a disease turning out to be become a chronic condition. " A team led by Professor Shaw also found that a type of frog giant (firebellied) produce proteins that can stimulate blood vessel growth and can help cure patients from injury and surgery more quickly. "(Findings) has the potential to treat various diseases and conditions require a blood vessel for treatment more quickly, such as treat wounds, organ transplant, and damage due to stroke or heart disease, "said Professor Shaw. According to these professors, scientists and pharmaceutical companies worldwide, although money has been spent to about U.S. $ 5 billion, has not succeeded in developing a potent drug that can wearing the blood vessels, control and manage its growth. "Our efforts aim at Queen's is to open the door of potential owned nature - in this case the substance found in frog skin and frog - to reduce the suffering of mankind. We believe this natural saving solutions to various problems we face. We need ask the right questions to find the solution, " said Professor Shaw. "It would be unfortunate if this nature have something that potentially be a cure for cancer and we do not do their best possible to make it useful, "he said. Responding to the discovery of Professor Shaw and his colleagues, members of the team Assessor Professor Brian Walker and Dr. Chen says it wants Tianbao encourage scientists to bring their findings to the level next. "The idea of ​​Professor Shaw is really very innovative and exciting in the area whose needs are not much satisfied, "said the assessment team was. "It is important to realize that this discovery is still in the stage early and much effort remains to be done before arriving at stage clinical treatment, "he concluded (* / bbc)
