Mannose shows potential against prostate cancer
We investigated how mannose, a sugar related to glucose, affects prostate cancer cells. Our study found that mannose inhibits cancer cell growth and encourages their programmed death, or apoptosis, in laboratory settings. It also showed promising anticancer effects in mice, all while maintaining their health.

However, the precise mechanisms involved include increased reactive oxygen species and changes in mitochondria, which could pose serious implications. Despite these findings, the benefit of mannose for prostate cancer treatment still needs further exploration, particularly since a related enzyme's lower expression seemed to correlate with worse outcomes for patients.

Mannogalactofucans show potential benefits
We explored the effects of low molecular weight mannogalactofucans (LMMGFs) on human prostate cancer cells. LMMGFs show promise in slowing cell growth and inducing cell death, particularly by disrupting critical cellular pathways. In lab tests, they led to significant changes in cell behavior, including cell cycle arrest and increased expression of certain death signals. Additionally, in a mouse model, LMMGFs effectively reduced tumor size. Overall, these findings suggest that LMMGFs could be valuable as part of health foods or therapeutic treatments for prostate cancer.

We investigated the role of Endo180, a lectin receptor, in early prostate cancer and its interaction with CD147. Our analysis revealed that the Endo180-CD147 partnership helps maintain cell adhesion and inhibits a process called epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which is crucial for tumor progression.

The study results suggest that bolstering this interaction could be a promising new strategy to enhance survival rates for men with prostate cancer. Overall, this interaction offers a potential therapeutic avenue we could explore further to improve outcomes.

Nearly eliminated UTIs
4 people found this helpful
This product has been a lifesaver after facing severe complications from prostate cancer surgery, leading to recurring UTIs. Despite trying various remedies, D-Mannose has almost eradicated my UTIs, and my surgeon fully supports its use. I take two 500mg capsules nightly and have reduced UTI occurrences by about 95%.

Effective for UTI
5 people found this helpful
I highly recommend this product for relieving prostate cancer symptoms. I have an enlarged prostate and frequently experience UTIs, making it difficult to urinate. After starting D-Mannose, my symptoms improved significantly, much like antibiotics. I found the powder more effective than the capsules, but the capsules are convenient for travel.

Improves quality of life
1 people found this helpful
I recommend D-Mannose for those facing similar challenges due to prostate cancer. After my diagnosis, I struggled with cystitis and urinary issues. I started using Eurobacsom and felt better. I plan to continue using it for five years, as I believe it significantly improves my quality of life amid treatment challenges.

Enhanced vaccine delivery efficiency
We evaluated the effectiveness of mannose-modified chitosan nanoparticles in delivering a preventative vaccine against prostate cancer in mice. By administering these nanoparticles intranasally, we observed stronger immune responses and a notable reduction in tumor growth compared to standard methods. The anti-GRP IgG levels remained elevated for 11 weeks, showcasing better delivery efficiency. Additionally, tumors in the group treated with our modified nanoparticles weighed significantly less than those in other groups. This suggests that our approach could be a promising direction in anti-tumor immunotherapy.

Tratt polysaccharides impact prostate cancer
We explored how polysaccharides extracted from Yunnan Tratt fruits affect prostate cancer DU145 cells. Our study investigated their ability to inhibit cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, along with their role in inducing apoptosis.

We utilized various methods, including assays for cell viability and migration, as well as flow cytometry to assess the effects on the cell cycle. The results revealed that Tratt polysaccharides can indeed suppress the growth of DU145 cells while promoting cell death through changes in important proteins and genes.
