| - | Apoptosis, or regulated cell suicide, eliminates unwanted and damaged cells, including precancerous and cancerous cells. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are chemically-reactive molecules containing oxygen that act to neutralize antioxidants. In their 2000 study, Salganki //et al.// reasoned that since ROS act as essential apoptotic mediators, increasing the ROS level might enhance apoptosis and thereby slow down tumor growth.(({{pubmed>long:10783311}})) Provocatively, that team showed that tumor growth was inhibited in mice fed an antioxidant-depleted diet while an antioxidant-rich diet had no impact on tumor growth. This work, while preliminary, offers one mechanism how megadoses of antioxidants are not protective against cancer and may actually exacerbate it. | + | Apoptosis, or regulated cell suicide, eliminates unwanted and damaged cells, including precancerous and cancerous cells.
