Abstract

N aga Ginseng is a different unlike other kind of ginseng available in the World. The color is yellow and size is large. During the first year of seed germination, it has bulb like tuberous root thereafter the root run forward like adventitious roots appearing wrinkles on its body. In the light of experimental results, two case-control studies and one cohort study were conducted to confirm whether Naga ginseng has any anticarcinogenic effect on human cancers. These findings strongly suggest that Naga Ginseng discovered from the mountain of Nagaland (North East, India) has non- organ specific, cancer preventive effects against various cancers. To investigate the active components for cancer prevention, several fractions of fresh and yellow ginseng and four semi-synthetic ginsenoside Rh1, Rh2, Rg3 and Rg5, the major saponin components in yellow ginseng, were prepared among the ginsenosides. By using model, Rg3 and Rg5 showed statistically significant reduction of lung tumor incidence and Rh2 had a tendency to decrease the incidence. In conclusion, these results strongly suggested that Naga Ginseng discovered from the mountain of Nagaland is a non-organ specific cancer preventive against human cancers and also indicated that the anticarcinogenicity or human cancer preventive effect of ginseng is due to ginsenoside Rg3, Rg5 and Rh2.
