| Vitamin like substance. Found in cereals, nuts and legumes. Inositol hexaphosphate (IP6) is a dietary component that constitutes approximately 1 to 5% of the weight of most cereals, nuts, oil seeds, legumes, and grains [1, 2]. In particular, approximately 9.5 to 14.5% of the weight of rice bran is composed of IP6. • Antioxidant Activity – IP6 can chelate metal ions and scavenge free radicals, thereby reducing oxidative stress and preventing DNA damage that could initiate or promote cancer. • Modulation of Signal Transduction Pathways – IP6 influences key pathways such as PI3K/Akt and MAPK, which are involved in cell survival, growth, and proliferation. Its modulation can lead to reduced cell proliferation and enhanced apoptotic signaling. • Induction of Apoptosis – By activating pro-apoptotic factors and suppressing anti-apoptotic proteins, IP6 promotes programmed cell death in cancer cells. • Cell Cycle Arrest – IP6 has been shown to interfere with cell cycle progression, particularly by regulating cyclin-dependent kinases. This arrest can prevent the rapid and uncontrolled division of cancer cells. • Promotion of Cell Differentiation – IP6 may encourage malignant cells to differentiate into more normal cell types, which typically have reduced proliferative abilities and lower tumorigenic potential. • Inhibition of Angiogenesis – By disrupting the signals needed for new blood vessel formation, IP6 can limit the tumor’s blood supply, thereby restricting tumor growth and metastasis. • Immune Modulation – Some studies suggest that IP6 may enhance the immune response against tumors, contributing to its overall anti-cancer activity. |
