Anti-angiogenesis herbs
SYNERGY:
Natural health products contain a cocktail of biologic chemicals that act on multiple pathways that initiate and maintain tumour angiogenesis. In addition, we hypothesize that angiogenesis within the tumour microenvironment may be more sensitive to a cocktail of natural health products administered continuously at relatively low doses than to single-agent pharmaceutical compounds administered intermittently at higher dose levels. In general, as compared with normal tissues, tumours contain very immature blood vessels that may be relatively more susceptible to anti-angiogenic therapies, permitting a therapeutic gain.
