Male Contraception: This Plant-Based Birth Control Could Work

At this moment men have two options for contraception: the use of a condom to catch the sperm or to have a vasectomy – sterilizing operation which cut the two tubes that carry sperm to the penis from where they are made in the testicles. Condoms are not 100% reliable (failure rate of around 18%) and it is a short term solution, while a vasectomy is a permanent option and just some of men manage to successfully reverse the operation.

The most optimistic prospect is Vasalgel, which has shown to be effective in animal trials. Other seemingly promising alternatives have faced development barriers—last year, for instance, a groundbreaking study on a male contraceptive injection ended early because the participants couldn’t handle the annoying side effects, like mood swings and acne.

Now, a group of researchers from the University of California – Berkeley have started testing out a new approach. They have found that two chemicals found in folk medicine can help block the fertilization of an egg and could make effective alternatives to hormone-based contraceptives.

Blocking CatSper Channels

CatSper channel known as calcium channel of sperm is vital for male fertility and it is activated by the progesterone hormone. Scientists have known about CatSper since 2001 when they stumbled across it while studying male infertility. The patients, it turned out, had a mutation in at least one of the nine genes that code for CatSper.

In this study, researchers screened more than 50 chemical compounds to find a few that could tightly bind with CatSper and block it. It turns out that the two compounds proved to be the best blockers. They found that concentrations of lupeol (a common molecule found in plants like olives, mangos, and grapes) could prevent calcium ions from giving sperm the boost it needs to penetrate an egg. The second compound is pristimerin used in traditional Chinese remedies to treat arthritis.

This study is still pre-clinical and researchers working currently on animal trial. If everything goes well, this method could lead to a unisex birth control method that works by blocking progesterone activation. For women, this could be a plan B, which would be effective before fertilization, or within six hours of sex. For men, it could work analogously to the pill.

Assistant professor of molecular and cell biology and study author Polina Lishko said that this could be a generation of emergency contraceptives which they nicknamed the molecular condoms.

Mango Compound Kills 99% of Lung Cancer Cells: In this just-published study, researchers found that mangiferin, a natural compound found uniquely in mango fruit, was so toxic to human lung cancer cells it killed up to 99% of them in 48 hours. Incredibly, this result was very comparable to the chemo-drug cisplatin, used in the same study! The mango compound killed cancer cells by triggering their mitochondria to initiate programmed cell death. What makes mangos so powerful? They are actually rich in two unique anti-cancer compounds: lupeol and mangiferin. Beyond suppressing cancer, mangiferin has also been found to be a natural anti-bacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, pain reducer, liver protector. It’s been shown to protect the brain from oxidative damage and enhance cognitive performance (in lab animals) and intriguingly it’s also a natural MAO inhibitor— meaning that it could theoretically boost adrenalin levels and improve mood. Mangos are also a great source of vitamin C, vitamin A, B vitamins, potassium and magnesium. They make a great breakfast with yogurt on top, and are delicious blended in your favourite fruit smoothie. #Mango #LungCancer #Magiferin #Lupeol http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26935347
