Exploring the therapeutic potential of biosynthetic enzymes in cancer treatment: Innovations and implications

Abstract

Cancer remains a major global health concern due to several factors. These include the difficulty in accessing effective drugs, the high toxicity of available treatments, and the emergence of resistance to therapy. As a result, alternative strategies, such as the use of microbial enzymes, have gained attention as potential solutions to these challenges. Microbial enzymes have shown promise in inhibiting the uncontrolled growth of tumor cells through various mechanisms. In this comprehensive review, our objective is to emphasize the importance of pivotal microbial enzymes in fighting cancer and their ability to hinder the growth of tumors or cancer cells. The review article serves as a scientific roadmap for researchers, clinicians, and industry stakeholders exploring the therapeutic potential of biosynthetic enzymes in cancer treatment. It emphasizes the quest for effective and sustainable cancer therapies, presenting the possibility of personalized treatments with fewer side effects than traditional therapies.
