Recent research has shown positive results for drug discovery of new species of frog skin for a number of specific types of chronic and hard diseases. Because of their findings, the scientists at Queen's University, Belfast, Northern Ireland, received awards for their research results. The results showed a certain frog skin can be beneficial for the treatment of 70 main diseases. The scientists received awards for medical discoveries, the Medical Futures Innovation Awards, in London.
The study, led by Professor Chris Shaw at Queen's College of Pharmacy was found two types of proteins that can regulate how the blood vessels grow. Group of researchers are the only Northern Ireland team who participated in the race to win the award this year. They found that the protein of certain types of toads (frogs of this type of monkey frog) can inhibit the growth of blood vessels and can be used to kill cells tumor. Profesor Shaw said that most tumor cells can only grow to a certain size before it requires blood vessel cells to grow into the tumor to deliver nutrients and oxygen are very important substances.
"Stopping the growth of blood vessels will reduce the likelihood of spread of the tumor and the tumor can be will kill it," he said. "This has the potential to transform cancer from a deadly disease into a chronic condition." Team led by Professor Shaw also found that a type giant toad (firebellied) produce proteins that can stimulate blood vessel growth and can help cure the patient from injury and surgery more quickly. "This finding has the potential to treat various diseases and conditions that require blood vessels for treatment more quickly, such as treating wounds, transplantation of organs and damage due to stroke or heart disease, "said Professor Shaw.
According to professors, scientists and pharmaceutical companies around the world, despite already spending money to about U.S. $ 5 billion, has not managed to develop a drug that can be a potent hit of the blood vessels, control and manage its growth. "Aim our efforts at Queen's is to opened the door of nature's potential. In this case the substance found in the frog and toad skin is to reduce human suffering. We believe this natural solution to keep the various problems we face. We need to ask the right questions to find solutions, "said Professor Shaw." It would be very unfortunate if nature has something that could potentially be a cure for cancer and we did not try my best to make it worthwhile, "he said.
Responding to the discovery of Professor Shaw and his colleagues, the assessment team member Professor Brian Walker and Dr Chen Tianbao say that they want to encourage scientists to bring their findings to the next level. "The idea of Professor Shaw is really very innovative and exciting in the area that needs not been widely met, "said the assessment team was." It is important to realize that the invention is still in early stages and much effort remains to be done before reaching the stage of clinical medicine, "he concluded
