Sericin is a silk protein primarily obtained from the silkworm Bombyx mori and has attracted interest for its various biological properties. Some studies have investigated the potential anticancer properties of sericin.
-Sericin exhibits antioxidant properties, which may help protect cells against oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is known to contribute to the development and progression of cancer, so antioxidants are often considered beneficial in preventive strategies.
-Sericin’s anti-inflammatory effects might help reduce inflammation-related damage and potentially slow down processes that can lead to carcinogenesis.
