Recent study by Dr. Kwon on the anti-melanoma effects of the spice cinnamon in both in vitro and in vivo (mouse model) which was published this month in "Cancer Letters".... I pasted the abstract below and the entire study should be availabe in a PDF file at the link...

Cinnamon extract suppresses tumor progression by modulating angiogenesis and the effector function of CD8+ T cells

Cancer Lett. 2009 Jun 18;278(2):174-182, Ho-Keun Kwon, Won Kyung Jeon, Ji-Sun Hwang, Choong-Gu Lee, Jae-Seon So, Jin-A Park, Byoung Seob Ko, Sin-Hyeog Im

ABSTRACT

Cinnamon is one of the most widely used herbal medicines with diverse bioactive effects. However, little evidence has been reported about the potential anti-tumor effects of cinnamon. In vitro and in vivo system, cinnamon treatment strongly inhibited the expression of pro-angiogenic factors and master regulators of tumor progression not only in melanoma cell lines but also in experimental melanoma model. In addition, cinnamon treatment increased the anti-tumor activities of CD8+ T cells by increasing the levels of cytolytic molecules and their cytotoxic activity. In conclusion, cinnamon extract has the potential to be an alternative medicine for tumor treatment.
