The benevolent and detrimental effects of antioxidants are much debated in clinical trials cancer research. Several antioxidant enzymes molecules overexpressed oxidative stress conditions that can damage cellular proteins, lipids, DNA. Natural remove excess free radical intermediates by reducing hydrogen donors or quenching singlet oxygen delaying reactions actively growing cells. These agents have the potential to hinder progression only when administered at right proportions along with chemo-/radiotherapies. Antioxidants affect signal transduction energy metabolism pathways for maintenance redox status. A decline capacity arising from genetic mutations may increase mitochondrial flux radicals resulting misfiring signalling pathways. Often, a metabolic reprogramming these leads overproduction so called ’oncometabolites’ state ‘pseudohypoxia’. This inactivate several intracellular involved epigenetic regulations, thereby increasing giving rise growth advantages cancerous Undeniably, cell-type Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) specific, which is manifested as changes enzyme activation, differences gene expression, functions well cell death mechanisms.

Epigenetics has provided a new dimension to our understanding of nuclear factor erythroid 2–related 2/Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (human NRF2/KEAP1 and murine Nrf2/Keap1) signaling. Unlike the genetic changes affecting DNA sequence, reversible nature epigenetic alterations provides an attractive avenue for cancer interception. Thus, targeting mechanisms in corresponding signaling networks represents enticing strategy therapeutic intervention with dietary phytochemicals acting at transcriptional, post-transcriptional, post-translational levels. This regulation involves interplay histone modifications methylation states human NFE2L2/KEAP1 Nfe2l2/Keap1 genes, acetylation lysine residues NRF2 Nrf2, interaction bromodomain extraterminal domain (BET) acetyl “reader” proteins, non-coding RNAs such as microRNA (miRNA) long RNA (lncRNA). Phytochemicals documented modulate act by reversing hypermethylated CpG islands NFE2L2 or Nfe2l2, via inhibition methyltransferases (DNMTs) deacetylases (HDACs), through induction ten-eleven translocation (TET) enzymes, inducing miRNA target 3′-UTR mRNA transcripts. To date, fewer than twenty have been reported modifiers, including curcumin, sulforaphane, resveratrol, reserpine, ursolic acid. opens avenues exploring additional that regulate epigenome, potential novel strategies view beneficial interception other chronic diseases.

Brain cancer is regarded among the deadliest forms of worldwide. The distinct tumor microenvironment and inherent characteristics brain cells virtually render them resistant to majority conventional advanced therapies. Oxidative stress (OS) a key disruptor normal homeostasis involved in carcinogenesis different cancers. Thus, antioxidants may inhibit tumorigenesis by preventing OS induced various oncogenic factors. Antioxidants are hypothesized initiation endorsing DNA repair suppressing progression creating an energy crisis for preneoplastic cells, resulting antiproliferative effects. These effects referred as chemopreventive mediated antioxidant mechanism. In addition, minimize chemotherapy-induced nonspecific organ toxicity prolong survival. also support prooxidant chemistry that demonstrate chemotherapeutic potential, particularly at high or pharmacological doses trigger promoting free radical production, which essential activating cell death pathways. A growing body evidence revealed roles exogenous adjuvants their ability reverse chemoresistance. this review, we explain influences endogenous on cancers with reference roles. role metabolic reprogramming influence downstream signaling events suppressor gene mutations critically discussed. Finally, review both pro- anticancer mechanisms molecules killing neoplastic inhibiting recurrence followed treatments. requirements treatment under conditions discussed along reasons behind conflicting outcomes reports. mention influencing factors regulate pharmacology treatment. conclusion, achieve consistent clinical treatments cancers, rigorous mechanistic studies required respect types, forms, stages tumors. concomitant regimens need adequate consideration.
