PMID: 25399297 Abstract Title: Tannic acid mitigates the DMBA/croton oil-induced skin cancer progression in mice. Abstract: Skin cancer is the most common malignancy in the world and also one of the major causes of death worldwide. The toxic environmental pollutant 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) is a skin-specific carcinogen. Tannic acid (TA) is reported to be effective against various types of chemical-induced toxicities and carcinogenesis as well. In the present study, we have evaluated the therapeutic potential of tannic acid in DMBA + croton oil-induced skin cancer in Swiss albino mice. Protective effect of TA against skin cancer was evaluated in terms of antioxidant enzymes activities, lipid peroxidation, histopathological changes and expression of inflammation and early tumour markers. DMBA + croton oil causes depletionof antioxidant enzymes (p [URL='https://www.greenmedinfo.com/article/tannic-acid-mitigates-dmbacroton-oil-induced-skin-cancer-progression-mice']read more[/URL] [/QUOTE]
