Conclusion: The results of the systematic review support the suggestions that photodynamic therapy with methylene blue helps against different types of cancer, including colorectal tumor, carcinoma, and melanoma. In cases of nanopharmaceutics use, a considerable increase of anticancer therapy effectiveness was observed.

Aug 12, 2023 · According to recent studies, methylene blue can help prevent cancer by inhibiting the growth of cancer cells and reducing the number of mutations that lead to cancer. Additionally, methylene blue may have applications in early cancer detection and intervention.

2 days ago · Methylene blue (MB), a phenothiazine-derived compound with a well-established history in medical applications, has recently garnered attention for its potential role in cancer therapy. This review examines the pharmacological properties, mechanisms of action, and emerging evidence supporting MB's anticancer effects.

Exciting new research indicates that Methylene Blue can selectively target and inhibit mitochondrial function within cancer cells, leading to compromised energy production and compromised viability. While more investigation may be required, these preliminary results indicate its possible future use as a cancer therapy treatment solution.

Apr 1, 2024 · The aim of this study was to investigate the pharmacokinetics of methylene blue (MB) and its impact on the tumor oxygenation level at mouse Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) model using spectroscopic methods.

To evaluate the efficacy of methylene blue (MB) in reducing the severity of mucositis-related pain, measured by numeric rating scale (NRS), in cancer patients who underwent or are undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

Sep 28, 2023 · Conclusion: The results of the systematic review support the suggestions that photodynamic therapy with methylene blue helps against different types of cancer, including colorectal tumor, carcinoma, and melanoma. In cases of nanopharmaceutics use, a considerable increase of anticancer therapy effectiveness was observed.

Colon cancer specimens can be easily evaluated concerning lymph nodes using the methylene blue method. Therefore, we strongly advise this approach as a standard procedure in the histological evaluation of colon cancer specimens in order …

Mar 15, 2017 · Photodynamic therapy (PDT), an approach that causes tissue destruction by visible light in the presence of a photosensitizer (Ps) and oxygen, appears as a promising alternative therapy that could be used adjunct to chemotherapy and surgery for curing cancer.

Recent advances in cancer research have highlighted methylene blue as a promising compound for treatment. It is now being studied for its therapeutic benefits in oncology. Methylene blue is a special dye that generates and increases oxygen levels in tumors.
