A range of molecular mechanisms are involved in anticancer activity and include the following ones: activation of cell-cycle-related proteins and enzymes such as p53, p21, Bax, and pro-caspases 3 and 9, reduction of cyclin D1 and E, proapoptotic Bcl-2, MMP-9, and NF-kV, which decrease VEGF, leading to cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and death of cancer cells. This evidence concerns the gene TP53 and cancer.
