Scurrula ferruginea (Jack) Danser is one of the mistletoe species belonging to Loranthaceae family, which grows on the branches of many deciduous trees in tropical countries. This study evaluated the antioxidant activities of S. ferruginea extracts. The cytotoxic activity of the selected extracts,
BACKGROUND
Macrosolen parasiticus (L.) Danser belonging to Loranthaceaea (mistletoe family) is a parasitic plant that grows on different host plants such as mango, jack fruit, peepal, neem tree, etc., This study was aimed to investigate the anti-cancer activity of methanolic and aqueous extract of
20 breast cancer patients received a single intravenous infusion of Iscador, a mistletoe (Viscum album L.) extract. Natural killer (NK) and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) activities as well as the number of large granular lymphocytes (LGL) were investigated in their peripheral
Surgical stress and anaesthetics are able to suppress the immune system. This may accelerate the growth and metastasis of residual cancer cells. As Viscum album L. extracts (VA-E) are known to exert both effects, immunomodulating and apoptosis-inducing properties, a Good-Clinical-Practice-guided,
Additional therapy with extracts of Viscum album [L.] (VaL) increases the quality of life of patients suffering from early stage breast cancer during chemotherapy. In the current study patients received chemotherapy, consisting of six cycles of cyclophosphamide, anthracycline, and 5-Fluoro-Uracil
We investigated alteration in DNA repair during therapy with an immunomodulator. 14 patients with advanced breast cancer were treated parenterally with Iscador, an extract of Viscum album (mistletoe). As a parameter for measurement of DNA repair the incorporation of (3H) thymidine into DNA of
Cytotoxicity assays in vitro (MTT test) showed that the different breast cancer cell lines Kpl-1, MCF-7 and Mfm-223 respond differently to the mistletoe (Viscum album L.) preparations Iscador. Quercus (Qu), Abies (A), Malus (M) and Pinus (P). In order to determine the differences in the
BACKGROUND
The objective of this feasibility study was to identify suitable surrogate parameters for a randomized confirmative trial with mistletoe treatment in patients with breast cancer. Tolerability,quality of life, hematological and immunological parameters were evaluated during postoperative
BACKGROUND
Mistletoe therapy (MT) is a method of complementary medicine whose efficacy is controversially discussed. Until now there is a lack of data of high-dose intratumoral application.
METHODS
We are presenting a 3-year follow-up of an 80-year-old woman with metastasized breast cancer
BACKGROUND
Prospective randomized studies on mistletoe therapy repeatedly demonstrated that there is a basic problem in the matter of enrolling the appropriate number of patients within a reasonable amount of time. Most studies have to face this problem. However, recent experience suggests that this
BACKGROUND
The effects of standardized aqueous mistletoe extracts on Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) of tumor patients needs further evaluation.
METHODS
in this non-interventional, prospective clinical investigation the longitudinal course of Quality of Life of 270 breast cancer patients
Cytotoxicity of the mistletoe lectins I, II and III towards six human breast cancer cell lines was assessed using the Mossman assay. In addition, binding of the three mistletoe lectins to the separated membrane glycoproteins of these cell lines, the binding and uptake of these lectins into the cells
BACKGROUND
Mistletoe preparations such as Iscador (Weleda, Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany) are commonly used in complementary and alternative / anthroposophic medicine for many cancer indications, particularly for solid cancers. Efficacy of this complementary therapy is still
UNASSIGNED
In the present observational study, the influence of internal coherence on shared decision-making for chemotherapy (CTX) and Viscum album L. extracts (VA) treatment in breast cancer patients was evaluated.
UNASSIGNED
Breast cancer patients with a guideline-oriented advice from the tumor
OBJECTIVE
Expanded presentation and re-analysis of previously published data of randomized and non-randomized studies on mistletoe therapy with breast cancer patients [3, 4]. The main question is: Does a re-analysis confirm the previously reported effects of prolonging the survival of patients with
