Basic research all say more and more often that special person intake of antioxidants can do a disservice to him. Especially when it comes to prevention or alternative treatment of cancer.
So, in 2014, Swedish scientists experiments proved that antioxidants such as tocopherol (vitamin E), which patients receiving prophylactic doses affect the growth of malignancies, namely, accelerate it! Studies conducted later confirmed these results, and explain some of the mechanisms involved in promoting metastasis.
So, certain genetic mutations involve intracellular protein synthesis Bach1 - driver "spread" of the human body to the malignant cells.
The authors of the experiment on an animal model of lung cancer found: an increase in the tocopherol composition of experimental diet increases their intracellular level Bach1. The results confirmed a team of other scientists demonstrated convincingly: Bach1 - the main element of metastasis with small cell lung cancer.
When oncogenesis malignant cells produce high levels of ROS - active oxygen forms. About a third of patients who are diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer, are found in some gene specific mutations that help cancerous tumor cells to protect themselves from the toxic effect AFC. In a series of experiments it turned out to calculate the number of the molecular mechanisms by which the accumulation of Nrf2 promotes metastasis in adenocarcinoma of the lung. The authors documented: each of the mutation promotes the migration of cancer cells and activates Bach1.
Scientists working in this field, absolutely sure: for patients suffering from lung cancer, vitamin E supplementation completely undesirable. In the publications of the researchers emphasize that the results will help to debunk the myth existing today that type of vitamin E antioxidants help prevent the development of cancer neoplasms. In fact, everything is different.
