Abstract
Antioxidants are known to minimize oxidative stress by interacting with free radicals produced as a result of cell aerobic reactions. Oxidative stress has long been linked to many diseases, especially tumours. Therefore, antioxidants play a crucial role in the prevention or management of free radical-related diseases. However, most of these antioxidants have anticancer effects only if taken in large doses. Therefore, the combined use of antioxidants with chemotherapeutic agents is an attractive strategy to combat various tumours. This article focuses on the antioxidant effect of emoxypine. The contribution of this molecule in enhancing the anticancer potentials of nelarabine will be demonstrated.
