The herbalist has access to hundreds of years of observational data on the anticancer activity of many herbs. Laboratory studies are expanding the clinical knowledge that is already documented in traditional texts. The herbs that are traditionally used for anti-cancer treatment and that are
An integrative approach for managing a patient with cancer should target the multiple biochemical and physiologic pathways that support tumour development and minimize normal-tissue toxicity. Angiogenesis is a key process in the promotion of cancer. Many natural health products that inhibit
BACKGROUND
Mistletoe extracts such as Iscador are commonly used as complementary/anthroposophic medications for many cancer indications, particularly for solid cancers. The efficacy of this complementary therapy is still controversial.
OBJECTIVE
Does long-term therapy with mistletoe extracts Iscador
A dysregulation between cellular immunity (Th1 cells) and humoral immunity (Th2 cells) is a characteristic of cancerous diseases. Viscum album (VA) extract has an immunomodulatory effect and can be used in the treatment of cancer patients, either following or in combination with chemo-
Scurrula ferruginea (Jack) Danser is one of the mistletoe species belonging to Loranthaceae family, which grows on the branches of many deciduous trees in tropical countries. This study evaluated the antioxidant activities of S. ferruginea extracts. The cytotoxic activity of the selected extracts,
BACKGROUND
Macrosolen parasiticus (L.) Danser belonging to Loranthaceaea (mistletoe family) is a parasitic plant that grows on different host plants such as mango, jack fruit, peepal, neem tree, etc., This study was aimed to investigate the anti-cancer activity of methanolic and aqueous extract of
Extracts and preparations from the parasitic plant mistletoe (Viscum album L.) have been used in the treatment of cancer for decades. Mistletoe treatment for cancer was introduced in 1920 by Steiner and Wegman, founders of the Anthroposophical medical method. Today, mistletoe extracts are the most
Cytotoxic lectins (KML-C) were isolated from an extract of Korean mistletoe [Viscum album C. (coloratum)] by affinity chromatography on a hydrolysed Sepharose 4B column, and the chemical and biological properties of KML-C were examined, partly by comparing them with a lectin (EML-1) from European
Lectin from mistletoe (Viscum album L.) was studied for its relations with the toxins from Viscum album, ascites tumor cells of mouse, and human immunoglobulins. Using affinity chromatography on glutaraldehyde-crosslinked IgG (human) from viscum crude extract, a fraction was isolated which exhibited
To date most pharmacological studies on mistletoe (Viscum album L.) have focused on the therapeutic properties of its polar extracts. This study examined the non-polar constituents of Viscum album and their biological activities. Supercritical CO(2) extraction coupled with gas chromatography/mass
Vysorel/Isorel is an aqueous extract from fresh mistletoe (viscum album). A number of components with different possible effects have been isolated, but exact analyses of the preparation have not been published. One ampoule 'Stärke 60' of 1 ml contains the extract of 60 mg mistletoe. Vysorel/Isorel
Extracts from European mistletoe or Viscum album L. have been reported to exert cytotoxic and immunomodulatory effects in vitro and in vivo. The mechanism of this anti-tumoral activity is however, largely unknown. In this study we tested the hypothesis that IscadorQu, an aqueous fermented extract
We examined the inhibitory effect of an aqueous extract (referred to as KM-110) from Viscum album coloratum, a Korean mistletoe, on tumour metastasis produced by highly metastatic murine tumour cells, B16-BL6 melanoma, colon 26-M3.1 carcinoma and L5178Y-ML25 lymphoma cells, using experimental and
20 breast cancer patients received a single intravenous infusion of Iscador, a mistletoe (Viscum album L.) extract. Natural killer (NK) and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) activities as well as the number of large granular lymphocytes (LGL) were investigated in their peripheral
The Viscum album (mistletoe) preparation Isorel is able to destroy tumour cells and to modify immune reactivity against a particular antigen in normal and in tumour-bearing animals. CBA/HZgr mice and methylcholanthrene-induced fibrosarcoma were used in these studies. A single dose of Isorel M (140
