Zinc-charged pancreatic enzymes for treatment of cancer and inflammation

Abstract

This invention is directed to pancreatic enzymes that have been charged with zinc ions, or zinc-charged pancreatic enzymes. Charging the pancreatic enzymes with zinc ions activate the pancreatic enzyme's anticancer and anti-inflammation properties and make the enzymes capable of being administered orally. It is observed that the zinc-charged pancreatic enzymes are able to induce apoptosis in various cancer cells without affecting the normal cells. The zinc-charged pancreatic enzymes have also been observed inducing apoptosis in trophoblasts and reducing inflammation in general. This invention is further directed to a method of preparing zinc-charged pancreatic enzymes. This invention is further directed to a method of treating cancer and inflammation using the zinc-charged pancreatic enzymes.
