SOD1, superoxide dismutase 1: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
SOD1 (superoxide dismutase 1) is a key antioxidant enzyme that catalyzes the dismutation of superoxide radicals into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide.

In several cancers including breast, lung, HCC, and others, alterations in SOD1 expression have been observed, reflecting its role in managing oxidative stress.
• Elevated SOD1 levels are sometimes associated with aggressive tumor behavior, therapy resistance, or decreased apoptosis due to enhanced ROS detoxification.
• Conversely, the protective role of antioxidants can also mitigate oxidative mutation loads, leading to context-dependent and occasionally favorable outcomes.

In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), increased SOD1 levels have been reported in some cohorts, potentially as a mechanism to cope with high reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels.
