Anti-Cancer Drug Anaerobin
a) EFFECTS ON KIDNEYS, HEART AND BRAIN
Cytotoxic metabolites are created when bio-reductive drugs go through a metabolic process because they contribute to curing cancer by lowering oxygen to areas where the cancer affects the body. The local auto regulation process of the body provides the oxygen to all parts of the body where it is needed. The arterioles supplying that tissue for oxygen dilate to supply more oxygen than usual. This happens also in the case of the tumor when it demands more oxygen; it is supplied by the body and anaerobin affects the auto regulation process in all areas as it reduces the blood flow to all organs, except the lungs. It can reduce the oxygen and supply of nutrients to the tumor by up to 99%. Therefore this bio-reductive drug can help in treatment of cancer in modern therapy.
Anti-cancer drugs reduce the cell growth of the cancerous cells. They affect the cancer cells which rapidly divide themselves up to spread fast throughout the body. However, they are not selective and affect other cells in the organ. It can affect the brain, heart and the kidneys this way. It may also affect the immune system by destroying or harming cells which fight infection in the body, such as blood cells, which allow clotting and carry oxygen to every corner of the body. Every part of the body needs oxygen and lack of it will hamper the functioning of the organs. The brain needs oxygen for proper orientation and if it doesn't receive that oxygen, patients may act disoriented, acting dysfunctional and forgetful, maybe even experiencing dementia. And since their blood cells are affected the are more likely to contract infections as well and may get hurt easily, bleeding and bruising is more likely to occur. Or they may feel fatigued most of the time.
Chemotherapy usually results in anemia which is due to lack of erythropoietin secreted in the body by the kidneys which helps to increase the red blood cells in the body by acting on the bone marrow. However the hormone can be injected into the body after the chemotherapy is over, or during to counter the one of the side effects of chemotherapy. However, if the kidneys themselves are affected by the anaerobin, they will function sluggishly and not do the actual job required to remove toxins and waste from the body and also to produce Erythropoietin to increase the blood count. People will have to refer to dialysis, to have their blood cleansed. Even clean blood doesn't counter the effect of lack of red blood cells. Low levels of oxygen will actually reduce the blood flow to the kidneys, which causes the side effects. The kidney's function of regulating the body's blood pressure will also be affected by inhibiting the production of retin. It will also affect the reabsorption of sodium ions by the kidneys so water uptake by kidneys is reduced along with the sodium uptake. You can experience pain or burning in urination, difficulty in urinating, urination urgency, reddish or bloody urine, fever and chills. (Benjamin Wedro, 2011)
Also, as waste builds in the build, appetite may drop, and fatigue becomes imminent. Also even though the lungs try to counter this increasing acidity in the body, this fluid may deposit on the heart and cause congestive heart failure. This means that the function of the heart as a pump that pumps blood throughout the body is weakened. Either because the tissue of the heart gets weak or the body demands too much rich blood to counter the effects of the tumor, that the gap between what the body needs and what the heart can pump is great. (Benjamin Wedro, 2011)
The heart is the most important organ of the body. It essentially works as a pump, with about the size of the human fist, and it pumps 72 times per minute with a resting time of about 4/10ths of a second. Its cycle is called the Cardiac cycle and is essentially for the functioning of different parts of the body as it carries oxygenated blood to all parts of the body and pumps deoxygenated blood out of the body and the bloodstream through the lungs. Since anaerobin doesn't affect the oxygen levels in the lungs, the deoxygenating process won't be affected, however since it does affect the heart, the weaker heart tissue will serve as an inefficient pump for the body and will become sluggish in its process of pumping in and out the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood.
Therefore, it will pump less rich blood to the rest of...
American Cancer Society The foundation has possess the quality and fiscal support to focus on short-term goal setting by looking and focusing on identification and ways to cure and heal the patients that have cancer never leading toward concern and sympathy in putting a stop to malignant cells and prescribing the right medication to save lives. In reviewing the process of the Society and its decisions it needs to make and
American Cancer Society (ACS) is one of the nation's best-known non-profit organizations. Like most Americans, I have had some contact with the American Cancer Society throughout my lifetime. I have given money to the ACS in various different charity drives. Furthermore, I have participated in the ACS's premier money-raising event, Relay for Life, as part of a relay team. When I have had questions about cancer, I have used ACS's
Smoking The American Cancer Society (ACS) reports that one in five deaths in the United States is the result of tobacco use. The Surgeon General issued a statement in 1982 that is still true thirty years later: "Cigarette smoking is the major single cause of cancer mortality [death] in the United States" (Leo Rosen, 2011). The effects of cigarette smoking can be deadly and perhaps surprisingly, less than half the
Strategic Planning Process Strategic management is the combination of plants that managers come up with in a bid to program work in an organization to the point where everything follows a predetermined pattern. In a management exercise, it is important to ensure that everyone is brought to terms with what is happening. Many opportunities for success are available for companies that plan their future appropriately. These are opportunities to do
Cancer Under normal circumstances, cells deemed to be normal multiply when the human body needs them. When they are no longer needed, these cells die. However, for an individual with cancer, the growth as well as division of cells tends to be rather abnormal. The death of cancerous cells also differs from that of normal body cells. In this text, I concern myself with cancer. In so doing, I highlight the
Cancer The medical name for cancer is malignant neoplasm. There are approximately forty different types of cancers, including a few varieties of leukemia and lymphoma. Cancer is a disease that has increased in frequencies in countries such as the United States of America during the latter part of the 20th century and into the 21st. In fact, according to statistics gathered by leading clinics in the U.S.A., cancer is the second
