Breast Cancer research

EPA inhibits breast cancer growth

The Department of Pathology II in Japan studied the effects of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and an angiogenesis inhibitor (TNP-470) on breast cancer cell growth. The experiments revealed that both EPA and TNP-470 inhibited the growht of tumours.

The molecular biologist who carried out the study was extremely reassured to discover that nutrients such as EPA actually suppress cancer growth at a molecular level and the scientists were all very optimistic about how this can the therapeutic uses . He believes this will filter down into patient care within the next five 5 years.
