Drugs and Supplements that Block Fermentation and Help Fight Cancer

Energy production inside cells In order to maintain normal function including biosynthesis and transport of molecules across cell membranes, cells require energy (called ATP). There are two “engines” inside the cells that they can use to produce energy: One engine is called (aerobic) respiration. This is the engine that is typically used by the cells

A New Approach to Improve Effectiveness of Cancer Therapies

Dear Friends, Today is October 18th 2018. That is exactly two years since my dear wife became an angel and exactly one year since the incorporation of MCS Foundation for Life with the aim of helping advanced cancer patients to live a better and longer life. I promised I am going to share with you some

A List of Mitochondria Inhibitors, Disrupting Cancer Cell Function

When looking at cancer as a metabolic disease, mitochondria (the engine of the cell) plays a key role in tumor development (Ref.). As a result, mitochondria inhibitors are important tools to be included in an anticancer treatment strategy. There is vast amount of information available on the web on this subject, so I am not

Drug cocktail could double the average survival time

Dear Friends, This is a short post to bring to your attention a result that was recently made public by Care Oncology Clinic www.careoncologyclinic.com in London. (Thank you Carl for sharing these news with me). The Care Oncology Clinic is undertaking a study and providing treatments that may complement and enhance standard of care therapy but also used as stand

Gluconeogenesis & How Hydrazine Could Help Fight Cancer and Cachexia

First I will start with the conclusion of this post, also added at the end of the post: Conclusion: Gluconeogenesis is a mechanism that needs to be addressed specifically in advanced cancer patients that are seeing fast loss of body mass. One major way to reduce Gluconeogenesis is via oral administration of Hydrazine. This is a

Glucose Absorption Inhibitors to Inhibit Tumor Growth

Background: I am writing this post in the context in which multiple readers and contributors to this website have shown interest in the potential of drugs and supplements that have the capability to inhibit glucose absorption in cancer cells. I am glad to see this interest as I also find this subject very relevant and would like to

Bisphosphonates: Against Skeletal Lesions + Direct Anti-Tumor Action

Background: Many cancers either metastasize to the skeleton or grow primarily within the bone marrow, where this growth frequently leads to hypercalcemia, severe bone pain, skeletal destruction, and pathologic fractures. Indeed, the skeleton is the most common site of metastatic disease, and some of the patients with advanced cancer may develop skeletal lesions (Ref.). Bisphosphonates (BPs)

Thalidomide: From Medical Disaster to Miraculous Cancer Treatment

Background: In 1957, Thalidomide was an over the counter drug used by pregnant women in West Germany, against morning sickness and nausea. Thalidomide, was hailed as a wonder drug that provided a safe, sound sleep. Unfortunately the complete spectrum of Thalidomide’s action were not well understood at that time, and shortly after the drug was brought to the

The Immune System Fights Cancer as a Metabolic Disease

Background: Scientists at the University Hospital and the DKFZ in Heidelberg, Germany have discovered that a protein from immune cells paralyzes the energy supply in tumor cells. The German Society of Pathology has awarded them with the Novartis Prize. The scientists have recently published their findings in Nature Communications. (Ref.) Mechanism: Natural killer cells “patrol”

High Dose Vitamin C & Cancer

Background: L-ascorbic acid (C6H8O6), known as Vitamin C, has a variety of functions in humans, some of which are not yet fully understood. It was discovered in 1930 by Albert Szent-Györgyi (Hungarian, half Romanian by descent), who as a result of this discovery received  Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1937. Note, that Albert Szent-Györgyi is the same scientist

Cholesterol & Cancer: Inhibit ACAT to Kill Aggressive Cancers

Summary: Cholesterol is a lipid molecule present in the membranes of all mammalian cells and is essential for their growth and viability. As an indispensable constituent of plasma membranes, cholesterol affects properties and functions of membrane proteins such as receptors, enzymes, or ion channels. Cells produce cholesterol or are able to draw it from extracellular sources via
