INTRODUCING THE TRIGGERING OF ADHESIVE PROPERTY IN A HUMAN MINIORGAN: POSSIBLE IMPLICATIONS IN CANCER TREATMENT.

Abstract

Introduced are ndings of sequential addition of H O and Tetracycline (TC) in contact with freshly plucked human hair follicles tissue. 2 2 Antioxidants decompose H O into O molecules and H O. Observed was a slowing of the reactive oxygen species breakdown by TC that could be 2 2 2 2 implied as a neutralization of the tissue intrinsic antioxidants. The observed inhibition phenomenon caused an immediate distortion detected via microscopy of the released oxygen bubbles from the breakdown. This distortion had been previously observed when exogenous H O was added to 2 2 sticky material from adhesive DNA precipitates. The mechanism explaining oxygen bubbles deformation is based on external pressures within an adhesive environment. Based on the similarities in O deformation in experiments presented in this manuscript, as well as in previous published 2 ndings, is inferred that TC besides inhibiting exogenous H O breakdown also triggers adhesive properties in a normal human miniorgan, thus 2 2 reasoned to potentially having anticancer properties
