| Fulvic acid is a naturally occurring compound found in soil, compost, and marine sediments. It is a complex mixture of many organic acids and has been studied for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-modulating properties. Shilajit is a complex mineral–organic exudate found in mountainous regions (e.g., Himalayas). It contains fulvic acids, humic substances, dibenzo-α-pyrones (DBPs), trace minerals, and other low-molecular-weight compounds. Most standardized extracts are characterized by fulvic acid content (often 15–60%). AD: -Fulvic acid may help inhibit tau fibril formatio -Antioxidant activity -Anti-inflammatory effects Cancer: -Fulvic acid’s role in reducing drug resistance and improving drug absorption has been suggested -Synergistic effects with chemotherapy Fulvic Acid database results: Note how it is antioxidant for normal cells, but may produce ROS in cancer cells. (explains synergistic effect with chemo) LeafSource Fulvic Acid note how they use Fulvic Acid to improve bioavailability of berberine.

| Caspases are a cysteine protease that speed up a chemical reaction via pointing their target substrates following an aspartic acid residue.1 They are grouped into apoptotic (caspase-2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10) and inflammatory (caspase-1, 4, 5, 11 and 12) mediated caspases. Caspase-1 may have both tumorigenic or antitumorigenic effects on cancer development and progression, but it depends on the type of inflammasome, methodology, and cancer. Catalase is an enzyme found in nearly all living cells exposed to oxygen. Its primary role is to protect cells from oxidative damage by catalyzing the conversion of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), a potentially damaging byproduct of metabolism, into water (H₂O) and oxygen (O₂). This detoxification process is crucial because excess H₂O₂ can lead to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that damage proteins, lipids, and DNA. Catalase and Cancer Oxidative Stress and Cancer: Cancer cells often experience increased levels of oxidative stress due to rapid proliferation and metabolic changes. This stress can lead to DNA damage, promoting tumorigenesis. Catalase helps mitigate oxidative stress, and its expression can influence the survival and proliferation of cancer cells. Expression Levels in Different Cancers: Overexpression: In some cancers, such as breast cancer and certain types of leukemia, catalase may be overexpressed. This overexpression can help cancer cells survive in oxidative environments, potentially leading to more aggressive tumor behavior. Downregulation: Conversely, in other cancers, such as colorectal cancer, reduced catalase expression has been observed. This downregulation can lead to increased oxidative stress, contributing to tumor progression and metastasis. Prognostic Implications: Survival Rates: Studies have shown that high levels of catalase expression can be associated with poor prognosis in certain cancers, as it may enable cancer cells to resist apoptosis (programmed cell death) induced by oxidative stress. Some types of cancer cells have been reported to exhibit lower catalase activity, possibly increasing their vulnerability to oxidative damage under certain conditions. This vulnerability has even been exploited in some therapeutic strategies (for example, approaches that generate excess H₂O₂ or other ROS specifically targeting cancer cells have been researched). |
