IVERMECTIN ACTIVATES THE p53 Gene that Nips Cancer in the Bud!

Ivermectin is truly a miracle drug!

Ivermectin has traditionally been used as an antiparasitic, but it also has antiviral and anti-inflammatory actions.

Importantly, ivermectin has anti-cancer actions, and it increases the expression of the p53 tumor suppressor gene’s pro-apoptotic pathway. 

Ivermectin helps the cancer cells reestablish the ability to detect that it is cancerous and thereby trigger an internal process of cancer cell suicide.

This is where cancer starts and ivermectin can help your pet nip the cancer in the bud- before the cell even becomes cancerous.

Think with this: Elephants and and whales have over twenty-two P53 genes and they NEVER GET CANER.

Let’s add it all up.  If you treat your dog with monthly heartworm prevention. [all year round in the south and when needed in the north] and you ONLY USE IVERMECTIN you very might also be helping to increase the expression of that special gene that detects and prevents cancer inside the cell.

This is how the body is already set up to find cancer before it get’s established- never allowing the cancer cell to  survive and multiply. Ivermectin helps to do it even better.

And this is the exact gene (p 53) that ivermectin increases the expression of!

LET’S FIND OUT MORE ABOUT IVERMECTIN AND HOW SAFE IT IS !

In 2015, the Nobel Committee for Physiology or Medicine, in its only award for treatments of infectious diseases for over the last 60 years honored the discovery of ivermectin.

I’m going to include some NIH publications in this article and you can open them, if you wish, allowing you to see that there is real science behind all the claims I’m going to make.  

If you can wade through the factual data, you’ll find the last part of thie will contain some ground breaking conclusions and a new understanding for cancer prevention in both dogs and cats!

What do penicillin, aspirin, and ivermectin have in common? In addition to rhyming, all three belong to the select group of drugs that can claim to have had the greatest beneficial impact on the health and well-being of humanity 

All three are of natural origin and all three led to a Nobel Prize. Aspirin is a derivative of salicin, a compound found in a variety of plants including willow. Although Hippocrates already speaks of its use in 400 BC, it was not isolated until 1829 as salicylic acid and was synthesized a few years later as acetylsalicylic acid. The discovery of its mechanisms of action earned Sir John Vane the Nobel Prize in 1982. Penicillin was isolated from a fungus that grew by accident in a Petri dish in Alexander Fleming’s laboratory. His discovery radically changed the course of medicine and earned Fleming the Nobel Prize in 1945. 

The long journey of a sample of Japanese soil……

The story of how ivermectin was discovered is quite incredible. In the late 1960s, Satoshi Ōmura, a microbiologist at the Kitasako Institute in Tokyo, began collecting thousands of soil samples from all over Japan, searching for antibacterial compounds. He grew bacteria from the samples, identified the cultures with medical potential, and shipped them 10,000 km away to Merck laboratories in New Jersey, where his collaborator William Campbell tested their effect against parasitic worms that affect livestock and other animals. A culture from a sample collected near a golf course south of Tokyo showed a remarkable effect against worms. The bacteria in the culture turned out to be a new species, which they named Streptomyces avermictilis.. The active compound, avermectin, was chemically modified to increase its activity and safety. The new compound, called ivermectin, was marketed for animal use in 1981 and soon became one of the best-selling veterinary drugs in the world . It is remarkable that, despite decades of searching, S. avermictilis remains the only source of ivermectin that has been found.

With that said let’s go into the many more uses for ivermectin other than as an antiparasitic drug.

Ivermectin has been shown to promote the repair of myelin (the sheath that surrounds nerves) in autoimmune diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis [think of the canine Degenerative Myelopathy potential]

Ivermectin suppresses tumor growth and has a high antitumor activity against tumor growth and metastasis in nude mouse models. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7205794/

Ivermectin also helps with drug resistant cancers, making them more susceptible to chemotherapy.  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6580523/

Ivermectin also might be a new potential anticancer drug for treating human colorectal cancer and other cancers. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8415024/

So…. How does all this tie together and relate to cancer and cancer prevention?????

Allow me to diverge a minute and share with you why chemotherapy does not work on animals. I learned this decades ago in a conference at the veterinary school in Colorado, which practices the most advanced chemotherapy and radiation Rx’s for pets in the world.

Dogs and cats cannot tolerate chemotherapeutic drugs. If chemotherapy was administered at the same dose per pound as humans, dogs would vomit and poop blood… wind up in the ER with a huge bill and, of course, stop chemo.  

In fact, dogs and cats can only take a very tiny dose of the chemotherapeutic agents that humans tolerate. 

Because the rationale with chemotherapy is to hit the cancer as hard and fast as you can, chemotherapy does not work well at all with small animal patients. Oncologists typically offer several more months of time with your pet at best.  Pets only get a fraction of the dose that humans get. {Not that I’m a fan of chemotherapy… but it’s important to know the ‘whys’.}

The thing is, pet owners know about this high cancer rate and work hard to prevent it in their own pets.

Many pet owners supplement their furry kids with all kinds of immune boosting products in the hopes that they’re helping to prevent cancer. Most of these work to stimulate the immune system after cancer cells appear. From my last article we have learned that cancer cells can disguise themselves and hide from the immune system. This is why there is usually not a big difference, despite all the supplements.
