| Polyphenol of many herbs - rosemary, perilla, sage mint and basil. Rosmarinic acid (RA) is predominantly found in a variety of medicinal and culinary herbs, especially those belonging to the Lamiaceae family, including rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), basil (Ocimum basilicum), sage (Salvia officinalis), thyme (Thymus vulgaris), and mints (Mentha spp.). In addition to the Lamiaceae family, RA is also present in plants from other families, such as Boraginaceae and Apiaceae. -Rosmarinic acid is one of the hydroxycinnamic acids, and was initially isolated and purified from the extract of rosemary, a member of mint family (Lamiaceae) -Its chemical structure allows it to act as a free radical scavenger by donating hydrogen atoms to stabilize ROS and free radicals. RA’s dual nature as both a phenolic acid and a flavonoid-related compound enables it to chelate metal ions and prevent the formation of free radicals, thus interrupting oxidative chain reactions. It can modulate the activity of enzymes involved in OS, such as catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), underscoring its potential role in preventing oxidative damage at the cellular level. -divided as rosemary extract, carnosic acid, rosmarinic acid? Summary: -Capacity to chelate transition metal ions, particularly ironChelator (Fe2+) and copper (Cu2+) -RA plus Cu(II)-induced oxidative DNA damage, which causes ROS -rosmarinic acid (RA) as a potential inhibitor of MARK4↓ (inhibiting to tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis) activity (IC50 = 6.204 µM) -Note half-life 1.5–2 hours. BioAv water-soluble, rapid absorbtion Pathways: - varying results of ROS up or down in cancer cells. Plus a report of lowering ROS and no effect on Tumor cell viability. However always seems to lower ROS↓ in normal cells. - ROS↑ related: MMP↓(ΔΨm), ER Stress↑, UPR↑, Cyt‑c↑, Caspases↑, DNA damage↑, cl-PARP↑, HSP↓, - No indication of Lowering AntiOxidant defense in Cancer Cells: - Raises AntiOxidant defense in Normal Cells:(and perhaps even in cancer cells) ROS↓, NRF2↑***, SOD↑, GSH↑, Catalase↑, - lowers Inflammation : NF-kB↓, COX2↓, p38↓, Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines : NLRP3↓, IL-1β↓, TNF-α↓, IL-6↓, IL-8↓ - inhibit Growth/Metastases : TumMeta↓, TumCG↓, EMT↓, MMPs↓, MMP2↓, MMP9↓, VEGF↓, ROCK1↓, RhoA↓, NF-κB↓, ERK↓, MARK4↓ - reactivate genes thereby inhibiting cancer cell growth(weak) : HDAC2↓, DNMTs↓weak, P53↑, HSP↓, - cause Cell cycle arrest : TumCCA↑, cyclin D1↓, cyclin E↓, CDK2↓, CDK4↓, - inhibits Migration/Invasion : TumCMig↓, TumCI↓, ERK↓, EMT↓, - inhibits glycolysis /Warburg Effect and ATP depletion : HIF-1α↓??, LDHA↓, PFKs↓, GRP78↑, GlucoseCon↓ - inhibits angiogenesis↓ : VEGF↓, HIF-1α↓, EGFR↓, - inhibits Cancer Stem Cells (few references) : CSC↓, Hh↓, GLi1↓, - Others: PI3K↓, AKT↓, STAT↓, AMPK, ERK↓, JNK, - Synergies: chemo-sensitization, chemoProtective, RadioSensitizer, RadioProtective, Others(review target notes), Neuroprotective, Cognitive, Renoprotection, Hepatoprotective, CardioProtective, - Selectivity: Cancer Cells vs Normal Cells

| Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD, also known as SOD2). SOD2 (Superoxide Dismutase 2) is a protein that is a member of the superoxide dismutase family of enzymes, which are involved in the detoxification of superoxide radicals. -MnSOD is localized in the mitochondria and plays a key role in detoxifying superoxide radicals, thereby limiting oxidative damage and maintaining mitochondrial integrity. • By modulating ROS levels, MnSOD influences cellular signaling pathways involved in proliferation, apoptosis, and metabolic adaptation—all of which are critical during tumorigenesis. Typically low SOD2 expression in cancers, with poor prognosis. -Increased MnSOD levels may help tumor cells manage the high levels of ROS resulting from rapid cell division and metabolic alterations, which can contribute to tumor progression. - Some prognostic studies associate high levels of MnSOD with resistance to apoptosis and poorer patient outcomes; however, findings are not entirely consistent across all studies. • Depending on the tumor type and the balance with other antioxidant systems, high MnSOD can be associated with either favorable or unfavorable clinical outcomes, reflecting its dual roles in cancer biology. |
