The Key Issues Related to Features and Perspectives of Antioxidants in Asthma and Allergy Pharmacotherapy

Abstract

DOI: 10.52340/GBMN.2023.01.01.23 The review aims to highlight the anti-allergenic and anti-inflammatory potential of some antioxidants in the pharmacological treatment of asthma and allergies. Under various physiological and pathological conditions, oxidative stress is both a result of and a contributor to redox metabolism. To effectively manage existing issues, it may be essential to understand the molecular mechanisms of basal oxidative stress and the role of antioxidants. It has been demonstrated that antioxidants can change the biomarkers of allergic inflammation and other consequences of allergy. Antioxidants can neutralize free radicals and control the level of cholesterol and other lipids in the blood. Antioxidants have anti- cancer activity due to prevention and inhibition of cancer cell growth. Antioxidants stimulate and activate the regeneration of normal, healthy cells. The complexity of each response and the multiple physiological effects complicate clinical studies of antioxidant therapy. Based on the existing evidence, we believe that antioxidants like zeolin-containing Geomin Forte have promising perspectives as adjunctive pharmacotherapy for asthma and allergic diseases.
