When it comes to the most serious conditions seen in the body, brain cancer will clearly be seen amongst them. There is so much detail to look into and the various substances and components often make finding remedies a challenging endeavor. However, with consistent efforts being seen in the medical field, recently a potential mechanism has been uncovered. With all of that said, is it possible that the mechanism in question could come into play for the sake of aiding research in ways that can prove much greater?
Various companies on the matter, Voices against Brain Cancer included, can tell you about the vital nature of this condition and very few would be able to argue against such a point. Brain cancer is often viewed as the most serious medical condition and it is easy to see why, as there are many different intricacies to consider. Medical Xpress posted a report on the matter, saying that glioma was the most aggressive form of cancer seen there. There was also mention of assistance to be given by an FDA-approved food additive.
Medical Xpress said that the food additive in question was surveyed by University of Vermont professor Diane M. Jaworski, Ph.D., and former graduate student Patrick Long. They were able to focus onaspartoacylase, which is an enzyme that can break down a compound by the name of N-acetyl-L-aspartate. NAA is the brain's primary storage form of acetate, which is able to turn genes on or off. When it comes to the condition that is referred to as glioma, both the levels of NAA and expression of ASPA are decreased.
It seems as though there were various efforts done in order to help increase the levels of ASPA expressions but the article said that, unfortunately, proliferation resulted from it. However, the report made mention of a food additive to be utilized later on and it was called glyceryl triacetate. Not only would this potentially be able to help glioma patients but it has been implemented in order to assist patients with Canavan disease as well. This is an inherited condition that results in brain cell damage.
According to the article, GTA was put to use and the results that came to surface were rather positive. It showed lower levels of growth in terms of glioma stem cells but another positive to consider was that the healthy cells remained unharmed. This, to me, is the most important factor to consider about this condition. It shows that there is a level of potential to consider, especially when considering that toxicity and side-effects alike are practically nonexistent with GTA being put to use for research purposes.
