Noble Laureate in Medicine (1998) Prof. Dr Ferid M (The University of Texas, Houston, Texas, USA) has suggested in a number of papers that inhibition of NOS2 (Nitric oxide synthase) may have a therapeutic value in a number of cancers.
In connection with this finding, Dr L Boominathan, Director-cum-chief scientist of GBMD, reports that: Treating cancer with Thunder of God vine: Celastrol, an antioxidant & anti-inflammatory drug from herb Thunder of God vine, suppresses the expression of NOS2 via up regulation of its target gene. This study provides mechanistic insights into how Celastrol inhibits the expression of NOS-2.
Idea Proposed/Formulated by: Dr L Boominathan Ph.D.
