摘要: There is evidence to suggest that reactive oxygen species (ROS) have a role in cancer. ROS important functions both physiological processes pathological events. Hence, it believed balance between and antioxidants critical cell health. can damage DNA, produce mutations, and, thus, carcinogenesis. It paradoxical the same may also bringing about actions of radiation, chemotherapeutic drugs, immunocytes on cancer cells. inflammation immune response. modulating ROS-antioxidant be exploited prevention management In this chapter, brief background given.
