摘要

Cancer is a critical health issue that remains a predominant cause of mortality globally. It is a complex disease that may effectively regulate many signaling pathways and modify the metabolism of the body to evade the immune system. Understanding neoplastic metabolic reprogramming as a hallmark of cancer has facilitated the creation of innovative metabolism-targeted treatment strategies. Various signaling cascades, such as the PI3K/Akt/mTOR, ERK, JAK/STAT, MAPK/p38, NF-κB/Nrf2, and apoptotic pathways, are commonly involved in this process. It is now widely recognized that an inadequate response and the subsequent development of resistance are frequently caused by the highly selective blockage of these pathways in tumor cells. Consequently, to enhance the overall efficacy of anticancer agents, it is crucial to employ multi-target compounds that can concurrently inhibit multiple vital processes within tumor cells. The utilization of plant-derived bioactive compounds for this purpose is particularly promising, owing to their varied structures and numerous targets. Among these bioactive compounds, terpenoids have exhibited significant anticancer efficacy by targeting various altered signaling pathways. Thus, this review examines the terpenoid class of plant-derived compounds exhibiting potential anticancer activity, including their impact on metabolism and interconnected deregulated signaling pathways in human tumor cells. Accordingly, current research will help in the rational design and critical evaluation of innovative anticancer therapeutics utilizing plant-derived terpenoids for the modulation of cross-linked signaling pathways of cancer metabolism.
