Curcumin is a polyphenolic substance extracted from plants such as Curcuma longa, zedoaria, and radix curcumae, it has attracted much attention because of the anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-tumor, antibacterial other multiple pharmacological effects. Cervical cancer one most common malignant tumors in women. With application HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccine, incidence cervical expected to be reduced, but remains difficult promote vaccine among low-income population. As commonly used food additive, curcumin recently been found have significant therapeutic effect treatment cancer. In recent years, numerous vitro vivo studies that can efficacy anti-cervical by promoting apoptosis, inhibiting tumour cell proliferation, metastasis invasion, inducing autophagy cells. However, due poor water solubility, rapid catabolism, low bioavailability curcumin, on derivatives novel formulations are increasing. wide range mechanisms action against may become antitumor drug future, opening up new ideas for research field antitumor. There lack systematic reviews mechanism Therefore, this study review literature based cancer, with view providing reference information scientific clinical practitioners.

Abstract Many types of human cells self-destruct to maintain biological homeostasis and defend the body against pathogenic substances. This process, called regulated cell death (RCD), is important for various activities, including clearance aberrant cells. Thus, RCD pathways represented by apoptosis have increased in importance as a target development cancer medications recent years. However, because tumor show avoidance apoptosis, which causes treatment resistance recurrence, numerous studies been devoted alternative mortality processes, namely necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, cuproptosis; these modalities extensively studied shown be crucial therapy effectiveness. Furthermore, evidence suggests that undergoing may alter immunogenicity microenvironment (TME) some extent, rendering it more suitable inhibiting progression metastasis. In addition, other components TME undergo abovementioned forms induce immune attacks on cells, resulting enhanced antitumor responses. Hence, this review discusses molecular processes features cuproptosis effects novel proliferation Importantly, introduces complex affect biology. It also summarizes potential agents nanoparticles or inhibit their therapeutic based from vivo vitro reports clinical trials inducers evaluated treatments patients. Lastly, we summarized impact modulating drug advantages adding modulators over conventional treatments.

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a cellular biological process involved in migration of primary cancer cells to secondary sites facilitating metastasis. Besides, EMT also confers properties such as stemness, drug resistance and immune evasion which can aid successful colonization at the distant site. not binary process; recent evidence suggests that partial or hybrid E/M phenotype(s) have enhanced stemness compared those undergoing complete EMT. Moreover, enables collective clusters circulating tumor emboli, further endorsing phenotypes may be 'fittest' for Here, we review mechanisms implications phenotypes, including their reported association with hypoxia.

Intratumoral heterogeneity is a major ongoing challenge in the effective therapeutic targeting of cancer. Accumulating evidence suggests that fraction cells within tumor termed Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) are primarily responsible for this diversity resulting resistance and metastasis. Adding to complexity, recent studies have shown there can be different subpopulations CSCs with varying biochemical biophysical traits varied dissemination drug-resistance potential. Moreover, cancer exhibit high level plasticity or ability dynamically switch between CSC non-CSC statesoramong subsets CSCs. The molecular mechanisms underlying such has been under extensive investigation trans-differentiation process Epithelial Mesenchymal transition (EMT) identified as contributing factor.

Abstract Chemotherapeutic drugs are used to treat advanced stages of cancer or following surgery. However, cancers often develop resistance against drugs, leading failure treatment and recurrence the disease. Polyphenols a family organic compounds with more than 10,000 members which have three-membered flavan ring system in common. These natural known for their beneficial properties, such as free radical scavenging, decreasing oxidative stress, modulating inflammation. Herein, we discuss role polyphenols (mainly curcumin, resveratrol, epigallocatechin gallate [EGCG]) different aspects drug resistance. Increasing uptake by tumor cells, metabolism enzymes (e.g. cytochromes glutathione-S-transferases), reducing efflux some mechanisms increase sensitivity cells chemotherapeutic agents. also affect other targets overcoming chemoresistance including cell death (i.e. autophagy apoptosis), EMT, ROS, DNA repair processes, stem epigenetics miRNAs).
