- Selectivity: Cancer Cells vs Normal Cells

Rank Pathway / Axis Cancer Cells Normal Cells TSF Primary Effect Notes / Interpretation
1 NF-κB axis (IKK → NF-κB; NF-κB-regulated genes) NF-κB ↓; downstream targets ↓ (COX-2, Cyclin D1, Bcl-2/Bcl-xL/IAPs, MMP-9, VEGF, CXCR4 etc.) Anti-inflammatory tone (context) R, G Anti-survival / anti-inflammatory transcription AKBA-class compounds suppress NF-κB signaling and reduce multiple NF-κB-regulated tumor programs in vitro and in vivo models.
2 5-LOX (leukotriene pathway) / eicosanoid signaling 5-LOX activity ↓ (context); pro-inflammatory eicosanoid signaling ↓ Anti-inflammatory support P, R Direct enzymatic / lipid-mediator suppression Boswellic acids are widely discussed as 5-LOX–linked anti-inflammatory agents; cancer relevance often tracks inflammation-driven growth signals.
3 Apoptosis (extrinsic + intrinsic; caspases; PARP) Apoptosis ↑; Caspase-8/3 ↑; cl-PARP ↑ (context) G Cell death execution Reported apoptosis induction includes death-receptor (e.g., DR5-associated) and caspase/PARP cleavage patterns in multiple tumor models.
4 Cell-cycle control (Cyclin D1 / checkpoints) Cyclin D1 ↓; proliferation ↓; arrest ↑ (context) G Cytostasis Often presented as downstream of NF-κB/survival signaling suppression and stress adaptation.
5 Invasion / metastasis programs (MMP-9, ICAM-1, CXCR4) Invasion markers ↓; MMP-9 ↓; ICAM-1 ↓; CXCR4 ↓ (context) G Anti-invasive phenotype In vivo tumor models report reductions in invasive and chemokine/migration biomarkers alongside NF-κB suppression.
6 Angiogenesis signaling (VEGF; VEGFR2-mediated angiogenesis) VEGF ↓; angiogenic outputs ↓ (context) G Anti-angiogenic support AKBA has been reported to suppress angiogenesis programs including VEGF signaling, with VEGFR2-mediated angiogenesis discussed in prostate cancer contexts.
7 PI3K → AKT (± mTOR) survival axis PI3K/AKT ↓ (reported; model-dependent) R, G Growth/survival suppression Commonly listed as a downstream survival pathway impacted by boswellic acids; keep as “reported” (not universal across all models).
8 MAPK re-wiring (ERK / JNK / p38) Stress-MAPK modulation (context-dependent) P, R, G Signal reprogramming MAPK direction varies by tumor type/dose and whether the experimental system is inflammatory vs cytotoxic.
9 Chemo-/radio-sensitization (combination relevance) Sensitization ↑ (context) G Combination leverage Combination studies report enhanced tumor control when AKBA-class compounds are paired with other therapies (context and regimen dependent).
10 Bioavailability constraint (oral exposure; formulation dependence) Systemic exposure often limited without enhanced delivery Translation constraint Poor pharmacokinetics are a common limitation; multiple strategies (e.g., micellar delivery, bioenhancers) are studied to improve absorption.

Time-Scale Flag (TSF): P / R / G

  • P: 0–30 min (primary/physical–chemical effects; rapid enzymatic/kinase shifts)
  • R: 30 min–3 hr (acute redox + stress-response signaling)
  • G: >3 hr (gene-regulatory adaptation and phenotype-level outcomes)


MMP9, MMP9: Click to Expand ⟱
Source: HalifaxProj(suppress)
Type:
Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is an enzyme that plays a significant role in the degradation of extracellular matrix components.
MMP-9 facilitates the breakdown of the extracellular matrix, which can enable cancer cells to invade surrounding tissues and spread to distant sites (metastasis).
Elevated levels of MMP-9 have been associated with poor prognosis in several cancers, including breast, lung, and colorectal cancers.
MMP2 and MMP9: two enzymes are critical to tumor invasion.
