Plant-derived bioactive compounds are gaining wide attention for their multiple health-promoting activities and in particular for their anti-cancer properties. Several studies have highlighted how they can prevent cancer initiation and progression, improve the effectiveness of chemotherapy, and, in some cases, limit some of the side effects of chemotherapy agents. In this paper, we provide an update of the literature on the anti-cancer effects of three extensively studied plant-derived compounds, namely resveratrol, epigallocatechin gallate, and curcumin, with a special focus on the anti-cancer molecular mechanisms inducing apoptosis in the major types of cancers globally.
植物源生物活性化合物因其多种促进健康的活性，尤其是抗癌特性而受到广泛关注。多项研究强调了它们如何能够预防癌症的发生和发展、提高化疗的有效性，并且在某些情况下，限制化疗药物的一些副作用。在本文中，我们提供了关于三种经过广泛研究的植物源化合物（即白藜芦醇、表没食子儿没食子酸酯和姜黄素）抗癌作用的文献综述，特别关注在全球主要癌症类型中诱导细胞凋亡的抗癌分子机制。
