Mitochondrial electron-transport chain and other oxidizing agents are the prime pathways that generate excess ROS in vivo
Permanent modification of genetic material resulting from the oxidative damage is one of the vital steps involved in mutagenesis that leads to carcinogenesi
The most frequent DNA mutations caused during oxidative stress, initiated by ionizing radiation and other environmental carcinogens are 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-Oxo-G) and Thymine Glycol (TG)
PNC-27 selectively kills colon cancer stem cells by binding to membrane H/MDM-2. This was an in vivo study. As with other studies, the result was tumor cell necrosis and associated high LDH release.
