Radioprotective effects of Mistletoe extract in Zebrafish embryos in vivo.

CONCLUSION: Abnoba Viscum Q has at least a similar radioprotectivity effect to that of amifostine. Mistletoe extracts have been clinically applied for a long time and their effectiveness and feasibility have been verified. Abnoba Viscum Q might be a new candidate radioprotectant to enhance cancer radiotherapy efficacy. PMID: 30836032 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
