Plain-language summary
Classic carcinogenesis model in hamster cheek pouch tissue showing that carnosine slows tumor development driven by reactive oxygen species. Maps the antioxidant mechanism onto an oncologic endpoint rather than a metabolic one.
Key takeaways
- ›ROS-driven carcinogenesis is slowed by carnosine.
- ›Connects antioxidant action to cancer risk modification.
- ›Early evidence supporting chemopreventive interest.
