Psoralidin / TumMeta Cancer Research Results

PSO, Psoralidin: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
Psoralidin is a prenylated coumestan isolated primarily from Psoralea corylifolia (Babchi). It is not a classical anticancer drug.
Psoralidin generally acts to suppress oncogenic signaling and survival pathways while promoting apoptosis in tumor cells.
Reported effects (context-dependent, preclinical):
-DOWNREGULATES pro-survival pathways (e.g., NF-κB, STAT3)
-UPREGULATES apoptotic signaling (caspase activation)
-MODULATES androgen receptor signaling in prostate cancer models
-SENSITIZES tumor cells to chemo- and radio-induced stress

This positions psoralidin as a biologic modulator, not a driver.

Across cancer cell and animal models, psoralidin has been associated with:
-Apoptosis induction
  -Caspase activation
  -Mitochondrial depolarization
-Inflammatory pathway suppression
  -NF-κB inhibition
  -STAT3 attenuation
-Hormone signaling modulation
  -Androgen receptor suppression (prostate cancer context)
-Oxidative stress interaction
  -Redox imbalance tipping tumor cells toward death under stress

Psoralidin is best described as chemopreventive or chemo-sensitizing, not chemoprotective


TumMeta, Cancer Metastasis: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
Cancer metastasis is the process by which cancer cells spread from the original (primary) tumor to other parts of the body, forming new (secondary) tumors. This occurs when cancer cells invade surrounding tissues, enter the bloodstream or lymphatic system, and travel to distant organs or tissues.
