Anthocyanins in Nature Work on laboratory cancer models has shown that black raspberry anthocyanins inhibit promotion and progression of tumor cells by …. 1. stalling growth of pre-malignant cells 2. accelerating the rate of cell turnover, called apoptosis, effectively making the cancer cells die faster 3. reducing inflammatory mediators that initiate tumor onset 4. inhibiting growth of new blood vessels that nourish tumors, a process called angiogenesis 5. minimizing cancer-induced DNA damage.
