| Retinoic acid is a naturally occurring derivative of vitamin A (retinol). Retinoic acid is produced in the body from dietary vitamin A. Vitamin A can be ingested in two primary forms: • Preformed vitamin A (retinol and its esters) found in animal products like liver, dairy, and fish. • Provitamin A carotenoids (such as beta-carotene) found in colorful fruits and vegetables. Once ingested, these compounds are converted into retinol, which can then be oxidized to retinal and further oxidized to retinoic acid. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is a key component in the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). In APL, ATRA induces the differentiation of malignant promyelocytes into mature granulocytes, leading to clinical remission. -Retinoic acid can have antioxidant properties -High levels of retinoic acid have been associated with increased ROS production and oxidative stress -The potential prooxidant action may contribute to its anti-cancer effects by inducing oxidative damage in cancer cells, thereby enhancing apoptosis. |

| The term "IL-1" is often used as an umbrella term for the interleukin-1 family, which includes multiple cytokines. The two best-known members are IL-1α and IL-1β. IL-1β is secreted from cells and plays a major systemic role in inflammation. It is a crucial mediator in the inflammatory response and is involved in the fever response, activation of endothelial cells, and leukocyte recruitment. Its increased expression is commonly linked to: – Promotion of a pro-inflammatory microenvironment that supports tumor growth. – Enhanced angiogenesis, invasion, and metastasis. – Recruitment of myeloid cells that may further suppress antitumor immunity. High expression of either tends to be associated with a more aggressive phenotype and worse prognosis in many cancer types. |
