Clemson University food chemist Feng Chen's preliminary research shows that distilled bio-chemicals from African mahogany slow the growth of colon cancer cells in laboratory experiments.
Chen is part of a team studying novel drugs derived from plants. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has agreed to award a multi-disciplinary research project between University of South Carolina and Clemson University. The funding will be used to explore novel pharmaceuticals from traditional medicinal plants to treat colon cancer. Dr. Michael J. Wargovich at the University of South Carolina cancer center leads the program, and Chen is a co-principal investigator, working on the biochemistry of potential medicinal plants.
