Inhibition of hypoxia-inducible factor activity with Carica papaya extracts

An extract of Carica papaya leaves is used as an inhibitor of HIF to effectively block hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) function and methods of use thereof. More specifically it relates to the use of Carica papaya plant extract to eliminate unwanted cells by inhibiting HIF in the prevention and treatm...
