Article Synopsis
  • Human pharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC) is a common and deadly cancer in the head and neck, often spreading to other regions.
  • Fucoxanthin, a compound found in brown algae, shows promise in inhibiting the growth and spread of HPSCC cells in laboratory studies.
  • The study found that fucoxanthin affects key pathways in cancer cell behavior, specifically targeting proteins involved in cell proliferation and metastasis, suggesting its potential as a treatment for HPSCC.

This study investigated the mechanism by which fucoxanthin acts as a novel ferroptosis inducer to inhibit tongue cancer. The MTT assay was used to detect the inhibitory effects of fucoxanthin on SCC-25 human tongue squamous carcinoma cells. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), and total iron were measured.
