Are There Targeted Therapies for Modulating Oxidative Stress in Cancer?
Recent research focuses on developing targeted therapies that modulate oxidative stress specifically in cancer cells. These therapies aim to either increase ROS production to lethal levels or inhibit the antioxidant defenses of cancer cells, making them more susceptible to oxidative damage. Agents such as pro-oxidants and inhibitors of antioxidant enzymes are being explored for their potential to enhance the efficacy of conventional cancer treatments.
