How Artemisinin Works Against Lung Cancer Cells
Cancer cells typically have higher levels of iron than normal cells. Artemisinin reacts with iron to produce free radicals, which damage and kill the cancer cells. This reaction doesn’t significantly affect normal cells due to their lower iron content.
The compound:
- Induces apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cancer cells.
- Disrupts cancer cell metabolism and DNA replication.
- May inhibit angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels that feed tumors).
