Uncontrolled cell growth that possesses the capacity to exhibit malignant behavior is referred to as cancer. The cytotoxic drugs used to fight cancer are associated with several adverse effects and are not always readily available or affordable, especially in developing countries. These issues are in addition to the shortcomings of the current cancer treatment regimen. According to growing research, honey is not cytotoxic to normal cells but is highly and particularly cytotoxic to tumor cells, suggesting that honey may display anticancer effects. Research has shown that honey affects a number of cell signaling pathways; however, at the moment, the precise method is not completely known.
不受控制的细胞生长具有表现恶性行为的能力,这种现象被称为癌症。用于治疗癌症的细胞毒性药物会引起多种不良反应,而且并不总是容易获得或负担得起,尤其是在发展中国家。这些问题除了当前癌症治疗方案的缺点之外。根据不断增加的研究,蜂蜜对正常细胞没有细胞毒性,但对肿瘤细胞具有高度和特别的细胞毒性,这表明蜂蜜可能具有抗癌作用。研究表明,蜂蜜会影响许多细胞信号通路;然而,目前还不完全清楚确切的方法。
