In neoplastic diseases, the most common mechanisms of action included free radical scavenging (hydroxyl radical, hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorous acid, singlet oxygen, the peroxynitrite anion and peroxynitrous acid); stimulation of immune system; improvement of oxidative phosphorylation and ATP generation; co-activating protein kinase enzymes; reduction of cellular proliferation; inhibition of angiogenesis; prostaglandin E2 or 17β-oestradiol; the uptake of linoleic acid, DNA methyltransferase or telomerase. This evidence concerns the gene WEE1 and neoplasm.
