Therapeutic Effect of Propolis and Paclitaxel on Hepatic Phase I and II Enzymes and Marker Enzymes in Dimethylbenz(A)Anthracene-Induced Breast Cancer in Female Rats
Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol, 2006 Apr 6
Propolis, a natural beehive product has been known for centuries for a variety of beneficial traditional medicinal properties. The present study was conducted to ascertain the antineoplastic potential of propolis along with paclitaxel against experimental mammary carcinogenesis…
Propolis treatment caused the activity of these enzymes return to almost normal control levels, indicating the protective effect of propolis against dimethyl benz(a) anthracene induced carcinogenesis. On the basis of the observed results propolis can be considered a promising chemotherapeutic agent and can be administered as an adjuvant with paclitaxel chemotherapy.
