[Growth suppression of transplantable tumors in experimental animals given soya proteins]
Abstract:
The development of a malignant process and antitumor treatment leads to the occurrence of a variety of complications. It is expedient to use biological regulators of natural origin to eliminate the side effect of chemical drugs and to improve the outcomes of antitumor therapy. The antitumor effect of soya proteins and their influence on antibody formation and oxidative processes in the sera of tumor-bearing animals were investigated. Soya proteins are shown to retard the development of a tumorous process, modulate the therapeutic effect of 5-fluorouracil, enhance antibody formation, and normalize serum oxidative processes.
Insights
Soya proteins can help manage cancer complications by improving immune response and normalizing bodily processes. These natural compounds enhance chemotherapy effectiveness and reduce side effects.
Area of Science:
- Biochemistry
- Immunology
- Pharmacology
Context:
- Cancer development and treatment cause complications.
- Natural biological regulators can mitigate side effects and improve therapy outcomes.
- Soya proteins are explored as potential therapeutic adjuncts.
Purpose:
- To investigate the antitumor effects of soya proteins.
- To assess their influence on antibody formation.
- To evaluate their impact on serum oxidative processes in tumor-bearing animals.
Summary:
- Soya proteins demonstrated an ability to slow tumor progression.
- They modulated the therapeutic efficacy of 5-fluorouracil, a common chemotherapy drug.
- Soya proteins enhanced antibody production and normalized oxidative processes in animal sera.
Impact:
