Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 Recent research out of UCLA has revealed a potential new weapon in the war against pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest forms of the disease. The study, published in the April issue of the International Journal of Cancer, reports that a specific antioxidant compound found in apples slowed the growth and curbed the spread of pancreatic cells in mice. Of course, further studies will be required to determine if the compound can treat or prevent cancer in humans, but the results of this study take a promising first step in that direction. ----------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
