Natural substance blocks growth of melanoma cells
For the new study, just published in the journal Molecular Cancer Therapeutics, Nair and his colleagues worked with human melanoma cells in the lab. They found that gossypin inhibited human melanoma cell proliferation in melanoma cell lines that harbor the two mutations, possibly by directly binding with them.
What's more, the veggie and fruit derived substance inhibited the growth of a variety human melanoma cells. In addition,
