Flavonoids As DNA Topoisomerase I Poisons

The therapeutic anticancer potential of flavonoids shown by recent research needs a greater understanding of these compounds. They are antioxidants and antimutagenic agents that can inhibit tumor promotion and transformation and can modify the activity of a large number of mammalian enzyme systems,...
