Features:

Butein - 2',3,4,4'-Tetrahydroxychalcone

Type: Chalcone / polyphenolic flavonoid-related compound

Function: Butein is a chalcone/polyphenol found in plants such as Rhus verniciflua, Dalbergia odorifera, and Butea monosperma. Butein is a naturally occurring chalcone with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiproliferative activity. It can modulate signaling pathways including STAT3, NF-κB, PI3K/AKT, MAPK, and redox-sensitive pathways and can influence apoptosis, cell-cycle progression, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis.

Cancer: Preclinical studies show broad anticancer activity, including inhibition of proliferation, migration, invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, angiogenesis, and pro-survival signaling, together with induction of apoptosis and cell-cycle arrest in multiple cancer models.

Type: protein
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.
