The potential for the use of natural products as anticancer agents was recognized in the 1950s by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and since then, several studies have provided valuable insights into the discovery of naturally occurring new anticancer agents.
25 maj 2024 · In this comprehensive review, we delve into the diverse array of natural compounds, including alkaloids, carbohydrates, flavonoids, lignans, polyketides, saponins, tannins, and terpenoids, highlighting their emerging roles in cancer therapy.
23 lip 2019 · Natural compounds from animal, microbial, vegetal, or fungi origin represent countless sources of new compounds that can be used as anticancer drugs if their activity, bioavailability, and toxicity are adequate.
13 mar 2020 · This review considers the complex interplay between cancer-reactive and self-reactive immune cells and discusses the potential uses for various leading immunomodulatory compounds, derived from plant-based sources, as a cancer therapy option or to modulate potential autoimmune pathology.
3 sty 2021 · A number of widely-used anticancer therapeutics originate from natural sources, such as irinotecan, vincristine, etoposide and paclitaxel from plants, actinomycin D and mitomycin C from bacteria as well as marine-derived bleomycin.
Natural products have proven to be promising anti-cancer agents due to their diverse chemical structures and bioactivity. This review examines their central role in cancer treatment, focusing on their mechanisms of action and therapeutic benefits.
4 maj 2019 · Early detection of cancer is critical to prevent disease progression, decreasing morbidity and mortality from cancer. For the presymptomatic detection of cancer, panels of biomarker analytes, instead of single markers, will be needed to have sufficient sensitivity and specificity.
