Description:
Xylose is a sugar that has been shown to have potential anti-cancer properties. It can be metabolized by certain strains of yeast, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, into ethanol and xylitol. Xylose has been found to inhibit the growth of cancer cells and induce apoptosis in human tumor cells. It also acts as an inhibitor of kinase activity, which is involved in cell signaling pathways that regulate cell growth and division. Studies have shown that xylose can suppress the growth of Chinese hamster ovary cells and reduce the size of tumors in mice. While further research is needed to fully understand its potential therapeutic uses, xylose represents a promising avenue for cancer treatment.
