Role of nuclear factor kappaB-mediated inflammatory pathways in cancer-related symptoms and their regulation by nutritional agents Gupta SC; Kim JH; Kannappan R; Reuter S; Dougherty PM; Aggarwal BBExp Biol Med (Maywood) 2011[Jun]; 236 (6): 658-71Cancer is a disease characterized by dysregulation of multiple genes and is associated with symptoms such as cachexia, anorexia, fatigue, depression, neuropathic pain, anxiety, cognitive impairment, sleep disorders and delirium (acute confusion state) in medically ill patients. These symptoms are caused by either the cancer itself or the cancer treatment. During the past decade, increasing evidence has shown that the dysregulation of inflammatory pathways contributes to the expression of these symptoms. Cancer patients have been found to have higher levels of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-6. The nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB is a major mediator of inflammatory pathways. Therefore, anti-inflammatory agents that can modulate the NF-kappaB activation and inflammatory pathways may have potential in improving cancer-related symptoms in patients. Because of their multitargeting properties, low cost, low toxicity and immediate availability, natural agents have gained considerable attention for prevention and treatment of cancer-related symptoms. How NF-kappaB and inflammatory pathways contribute to cancer-related symptoms is the focus of this review. We will also discuss how nutritional agents such as curcumin, genistein, resveratrol, epigallocatechin gallate and lycopene can modulate inflammatory pathways and thereby reduce cancer-related symptoms in patients.|*Gene Expression Regulation[MESH]|*Signal Transduction[MESH]|Food[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Immunologic Factors/metabolism[MESH]|Inflammation/*pathology/*physiopathology[MESH]|NF-kappa B/*metabolism[MESH]|Neoplasms/*pathology/*physiopathology[MESH] |
