Metformin promises as anti aging and anti cancer agent

Dear all hands
A new fact has been discovered by researchers from the University of Montreal. The researchers obtained the fact that metformin has potential as a cure aging and cancer drugs.

Metformin is actually not a new drug, but an old drug used to lower blood sugar levels.
  In that study, the mechanism of metformin to combat aging and cancer is by reducing the production of cytokines. Stokin hormone known as hormones that accelerate the aging process.
Actually hormons cytokines play an important role, which activate the immune system against infection. However, if the hormone is produced excessive cytokines, the inflammatory process will occur. This will accelerate the inflammatory process of aging.



Metformin is a generic name for an oral medication that has been approved by the FDA in 1994 to lower blood sugar. Metformin is also prescribed for women with PCOS. PCOS is a hormone imbalance problem in women that cause health problems. In patients with PCOS, drugs to stimulate ovulation, regulate menstrual periods and increased fertility in women.

Interestingly, the study found a molecular pathway that is used to cause the anti-aging and anti-cancer is not the same path is used when metformin to treat diabetes or PCOS. Previous studies of metformin, documenting just how mechanism of anti-aging and anti-cancer occurs metformin.


But it must be remembered that metformin is a dangerous drug. Metftormin dangerous because it has harsh side effects, which lead to lactic acidosis.
The use of metformin in excess of the threshold will cause acidosis laktak. Lactic acidosis is a buildup of lactic acid in the blood.
 

Middle east corona virus more deadly than SARS

Several years ago, the world was shocked by the SARS infection. SARS  Infection   almost hits economy that had a virus like sinapura and hongkong. After the SARS virus attacks, some time ago the world was shocked by a new virus attack. This virus is corona virus, same family with SARS virus. 

New Coronavirus attacks in the Middle East and  have killed 11 people. This midddle east oronavirus is potentially more lethal than acute respiratory syndrome (severe acute respiratory syndrome / SARS). In addition, the virus is also capable of infecting different species.

Based on the research of a university, corona virus is not like the mid east SARS, middle east coronavirus can affect different organs in the body and kills the cells rapidly. The source of infection of the middle east corona virus is still unknown, but the virus appears to have originated from bats.

Host of the middle east corona virus is very various, some potential as a host animal such as: monkeys, pigs, ferrets and even rabbits. This leads to the source of infection in humans is difficult to trace.

The World Health Organization announced yesterday that the disease has killed two more people - men 73 years of the United Arab Emirates and a Briton who has visited Saudi Arabia and Pakistan - bringing the death toll to 11. WHO has confirmed 17 cases to date.

If the virus continues to mutate will apat menyabkan deadly pandemic, because the middle east corona virus attacks many organs including: lower respiratory tract, liver, kidneys, and intestines.
