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 human cancer with Thunder of God vine: Celastrol, an antioxidant & anti-inflammatory drug from herb Thunder of God vine, suppresses the expression of telomerase via down regulation of its target gene. This study provides mechanistic insights into how inhibition of NOS-2 may aid cancer therapy.
Idea Proposed/Formulated by: Dr L Boominathan Ph.D.
