Type:
SOD, or superoxide dismutase, is an important antioxidant enzyme that plays a crucial role in protecting cells from oxidative stress. It catalyzes the dismutation of superoxide radicals into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide.
SOD Isoforms: There are three main isoforms of SOD:
SOD1 (cytosolic): Often found to be overexpressed in certain tumors, which may help cancer cells survive in oxidative environments.
SOD2 (mitochondrial): Plays a critical role in protecting mitochondria from oxidative damage. Its expression can be upregulated in some cancers, contributing to tumor growth and resistance to therapy.
SOD3 (extracellular): Its role in cancer is less well understood, but it may have implications in the tumor microenvironment and metastasis.
The expression levels of SOD can serve as a prognostic indicator in some cancers. For example, high levels of SOD expression have been associated with poor prognosis in certain types of tumors, potentially due to their role in promoting tumor cell survival and resistance to therapies.

- in-vitro, Nor, JB6
*antiOx↑, Lycopene stimulated the activation of antioxidant enzymes and the translocation of the transcription factor Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) that predominantly maintained intracellular redox equilibrium
*NRF2↑, Lycopene activated the Nrf2 pathway in the presence of carcinogens in vivo and in vitro
*GSH/GSSG↓, Lycopene also rebalanced the GSH/GSSG ratio, partly representing the cellular redox condition commendably
*Catalase↝, catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), lower activities of these enzymes were reversed by this compound

*GSH↑, mRNA levels of GSH and these antioxidant substances were also up-regulated significantly by lycopene pretreatment
*Keap1↓, Lycopene induced activation of Nrf2 by reducing Keap1 protein
*p62↑, lycopene induced p62 binding to Keap1, so Keap1 degradation was mediated by p62
