Features:

Polyphenols are a large and structurally diverse family of plant-derived phenolic compounds characterized by multiple phenolic hydroxyl groups and encompassing major subclasses including flavonoids, phenolic acids, stilbenes, lignans, and tannins. They occur widely in fruits, vegetables, herbs, tea, coffee, cocoa, and medicinal plant extracts. Polyphenols exhibit broad biological activity involving redox regulation, inflammatory signaling, kinase pathways, apoptosis, cell-cycle control, angiogenesis, metabolism, and epigenetic regulation. In cancer models, many polyphenols inhibit proliferation, promote apoptosis or senescence, suppress invasion and angiogenesis, and can alter sensitivity to chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Effects are highly compound-, dose-, and context-dependent; antioxidant activity in normal tissues may coexist with pro-oxidant ROS induction in cancer cells. Oral bioavailability is frequently limited by poor absorption and extensive intestinal, hepatic, and microbial metabolism, making high-concentration in-vitro findings difficult to extrapolate directly to human systemic exposure.

Bcl-2, B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2: Click to Expand ⟱
Source: HalifaxProj (inhibit) CGL-Driver Genes
Type: Antiapoptotic Oncogene
The proteins of BCL-2 family are classified into three subgroups, i.e., the anti-apoptotic/pro-survival proteins represented by BCL-2 and BCL-XL, the pro-apoptotic proteins represented by BAX and Bak, and the pro-apoptotic BH3-only proteins represented by BAD and BID.
Since the expression of Bcl-2 protein in tumor cells is much higher than that in normal cells, inhibitors targeting it have little effect on normal cells.
