Cancer Treatments – from Research to Application
MCS Foundations for Life, In memory of my dear wife Mihaela Catalina Stanciu
Most cancer cells (~97%) predominantly produce energy by a high rate of glycolysis followed by lactic acid fermentation in the cytosol rather than by a lower rate of glycolysis followed by oxidation of pyruvate in mitochondria as in most normal cells. The latter process is aerobic (uses oxygen). Malignant, rapidly growing tumor cells typically have glycolytic rates up to 200 times higher than those of their normal tissues of origin; this occurs even if oxygen is plentiful. Otto Warburg postulated this change in metabolism is the fundamental cause of cancer. Recently, this view regained momentum and intensive academic research has uncovered several metabolic inhibitors (e.g. glycolysis inhibitors) with high potential as anti cancer drugs. The stong point of this anti cancer approach is that (in contrast to the genetic approach) metabolic inhibitors are relevant for most types of cancers.
Author: Daniel S, PhD; Last update: Febraury 28th, 2021 Introduction Dear Friends, A few months ago I shared an article in the Forum section of this website, reporting on a successful treatment of a lung cancer patient with brain metastasis. In this case, the brain metastasis completely disappeared after the patient has been treated with

Author: Daniel S, PhD; Last update: January 2021 Dear Friends, Sometime ago, I promised to address this strategy, Shutting Down the Power House of Cancer, in more details (Ref.). Although I was looking forward to do this, it took some time to do this as I am working in parallel on three different directions, all

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 Cancer Treatments Research post on Fenbendazole use in cancer and the science behind. Fenbendazole is a deworming drug used in animals, now used by patinets to fight cancer. This post addresses the cancer protocol and the dosage for humans inline with Joe Tippens protocol, using panacur c.
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

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

About two years ago, I wrote an article on Citric Acid (CA) and it’s potential as an anti cancer agent (Ref.). There was a lot of debate on this subject, reflected in nearly 1000 comments on the post. We’ve seen some strong opinions pro and some strong opinions against this subject, some more and others

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

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

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
Continue reading Glucose Absorption Inhibitors to Inhibit Tumor Growth
Background: First, I will start this post by wishing all the readers a Happy New Year full of health for you and your family, and a lot of success in everything you do! I also like to specifically thank to Ann who was the first visitor/friend this year to post a wish to all of us

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)

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

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”

Background: Update 03 September 2018: Today I became aware of a recent (2017) scientific paper published in the journal Scientific Reports of Nature Group , discussing work on Citric Acid performed at Harvard School of Medicine, and concluding the following: “Our data suggests that citrate can inhibit tumor growth in diverse tumor types and via

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

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
