Sper, Spermidine: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
Spermidine : Polyamine (natural small molecule)
Sources: Found in foods like wheat germ, soybeans, mushrooms, aged cheese, and fermented foods. Typical dietary intake is ~5–20 mg/day.
Primary Actions: Autophagy induction, mild ROS modulation, epigenetic regulation, and modulation of polyamine metabolism.
Pathway	                Effect of Spermidine
Autophagy (ATG genes)	↑ Induction, Beclin-1 activation
mTORC1 signaling	↓ Inhibition, promotes catabolic metabolism
p53/p21	                Modulation via epigenetic changes
Polyamine metabolism	Supports or stresses proliferating cells
ROS / redox balance	Mild modulation; sensitizes cancer cells to ROS stress
Context-dependent risk: High spermidine levels might support tumor growth in polyamine-addicted cancers; dose, timing, and tumor type matter.

Chemo interaction: Generally compatible; not expected to block ROS-dependent therapy at oral doses.

Spermidine, a biogenic polyamine that declines along with aging, shows promise in restoring antitumor immunity by enhancing mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (FAO)
