Oxidative Stress And Use Of Antioxidants In Lung Cancer

Abstract

Numerous diseases, including as atherosclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer, are made worse by oxidative stress. Preclinical studies have shown that some tiny molecules investigated as antioxidants have therapeutic potential, however clinical trials have yielded disappointing results. A deeper understanding of the mechanisms by which antioxidants function, as well as the locations and times at which they are most effective, may result in a more logical approach to pharmacotherapy. We'll examine the links between illness and oxidative stress, redox signalling, and antioxidant defences, as well as what makes them effective and what can be done to strengthen them, over the following few pages. Additionally, we will discuss some possible pharmacological therapies, physiological signalling, and nutritional components.
