Original title: Curry ingredients can cure malignant brain cancer
glioblastoma is the most malignant brain cancer, almost impossible to be completely removed by surgery, five-year survival rate of less than 10%. The tumor grows very fast, 70% to 80% of patients have a course of 3 to 6 months, and only 10% of patients have a course of more than 1 year. Even after active treatment, tumors are likely to relapse and progress rapidly between six months and a year. Therefore, curbing the recurrence of glioblastoma is an important topic to reduce patient mortality.
team at Findlay University in Ohio recently developed a new targeted drug for glioblastoma. The researchers say the main advantage of the targeted drug being developed, called RK-15, is that it retains healthy brain cells in the fight against tumors. During the development of the drug, researchers used a drug molecule called charcoal, which is commonly found in curry. Dr. Rahul, the drugologist who led the study, grew up in India and first discovered that charcoal has anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. The next step, the researchers say, will be animal tests to verify the effectiveness of the targeted drug.
