About a month ago, I briefly mention about Dr.Pan's (潘念章) cancer research in Taiwan. I was very intrigued, because if everything he said is true, then his method of cancer detection and healing methods would be extremely simple and eloquent. As a result, I made extensive research on him, on his theory by watching many of his presentation video. Here is my summary about him and his research.
Who is Dr. Pan (潘念章)?
Dr. Pan received his medical doctor degree from Taiwan National Defense Medical School (囯防醫學院) in 1981. He has been pathology specialist at Taiwan Veteran Hospital ( 榮民醫院)for 8 years and had been working on approximately 2000 dead bodies to study the causes of their deaths. He had been appointed in a special team of doctors to treat Mr. Chiang Jing-Kuo's (蔣經國, then President of R.O.C) diabetics. During this time, Dr. Pan learned about Chinese medicine from his mentor, Dr. Huang Ming-Teh (黃民德). After the death of Mr. Chiang, he was then appointed as a head doctor for type B hepatitis (the so-called Taiwan National Disease) prevention and treatment. He started working on breast cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment. He is now a faculty of Bastyr University specialized in alternative medicine and treatment. He wrote a book, 'Principle of enjoying Longitivity' (享壽主義).
Summary of Dr. Pan's cancer stem cell theory and detection
Dr. Pan's theory can be summarized in the following chart which combine currently accepted Western Medicine theory and his own thinking and practice.
In the chart, the top part of the circle represents the normal cell, and normal stem cells (CD 45). The bottom part of the circle is the cancer cell, and cancer stem cells (CD 24, and CD 44). In the lower right, there is a mark called 'Sirtuin' that Dr. Pan called it the longitivtiy factor (長壽基因) is actually an enzyme that is involved in counteracting aging and inflammation. When sirtuin activity is low, the individual is susceptible to aging or cancer. CD 24, CD 44, together with sirtuin have been discovered by Michigan researcher in 2003.
The upper left of the circle shows the process of transforming a normal stem cell into cancer stem cells. The process involves toxin, inflammation, oxidation stress and apoptosis. The lower right of the circle shows the factors that facilitate the transformation from normal stem cells to cancer stem cells. These factors include: stress, insulin resistance, inflammation, and decrease in activity of sirtuin, the longitivtiy factor. These processes and factors are accepted by all cancer researchers including Dr. Pan.
What are the differences between Dr.Pan's research group and Western Cancer research groups?
While both groups recognize the importance of detecting and isolating cancer stem cells and sirtuin, Western researchers are far short of detecting CD 24 and CD 44, or cancer stem cells in vivo for several reasons. First, their presence is in minute quantity with concentrations in the range of pico or 10(E-15) gm/mL. Not many conventional instrument has such a sensitivity. Second, they do not reside in one place but flow through many locations. Thus, it is very difficult to locate those cancer stem cells.
Here, Dr. Pan, with his Chinese 'blood circulation path' (經絡系統), has a tremendous advantage. According to Chinese medicine 'blood circulation path', disease attacks the body from surface and proceed to the core through the following path: Tai-Yang (太陽) via Bladder and Small Intestine Circulation Path(膀胱經與小腸經) 、Sau-Yang through Gallbladder and SanJiaug Circulation Path. 少陽(膽經與三焦經)、Yang-Ming via Stomach and Large Intestine Path, 陽明(胃經與大腸)、Tai-Ying via Spleen and Lung Circulation Path 太陰(脾經與肺經)、 Sau-Ying via Kidney and Heart Circulation Path 少陰(腎經與心經)與 and finally the Zieu-Ying via Liver and shing-Pau Circulation Path. 厥陰(肝經與心包經). The paths are transported via vibrational frequency resonance leading to the formation of the cancer stem cells and this path is shown as the inner left half circle from the top to the bottom.
Dr. Pan asserts that cancer stem cells reside on among 10 the so called 'death cavity' (死穴). They are: Yang-Pai ( 陽白), Chung-Hu(中府),Shung-Tsung(神藏),Jung-Mun(章門),Juai-Ku( 絕骨),Yung-Chuang(湧泉),Tim-Tau(地道),Kau-Fung(膏芳),Taung-Mung (衝門) , Su-Pai(四百). Part of the cavities are displayed in the following diagram. Yang-Ming (陽明) is at forehead while Yung-Chung (湧泉) is at the bottom of the feet.

I did learn extensively about Dr Pan and in fact I have discussed his theory with a TCM practitioner. At the same time, I may discuss these with a well known nutritionist as well. His theory about the cancer seems promising.
ReplyDelete潘念宗 is the correct Chinese name.
