Another interesting bit about the paw paw there are several sites that mention the paw paw and cancer, as well as the narcotic effect of the seeds.

Asimina triloba, commonly known as pawpaw, is native to North America and has edible bean-shaped fruits.
In vitro studies show that pawpaw extract has cytotoxic effects against cancer cell lines including those resistant to adriamycin (1), as well as antiangiogenic activity (9). Compounds known as acetogenins are thought to be the active constituents (2). Clinical studies have not been conducted.
