A study published in The American Journal of Chinese Medicine examined the antioxidant and antitumor properties of polysaccharides from medicinal plants. This study was carried out by researchers from Jinan University and Shenzhen Third People’s Hospital in China.
In sum, the researchers concluded that plant polysaccharides exhibit their anti-tumor and antioxidant effects through ROS-centered pathways, transcription factor-related pathways, and sometimes, tumorigenic pathway.
