Abstract
This article explores the intricate relationship between xenobiotics and cancer, shedding light on the mechanisms of carcinogenesis and potential therapeutic interventions. Xenobiotics, foreign chemical compounds encountered in the environment, play a significant role in cancer development through various mechanisms, including genotoxicity, oxidative stress, epigenetic alterations, hormonal disruption, and immune modulation. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for devising effective preventive and therapeutic strategies. Key interventions include environmental regulations to reduce exposure, chemoprevention utilizing antioxidants and targeted agents, personalized medicine based on genomic profiling, immunotherapy, and lifestyle modifications. By unraveling the link between xenobiotics and cancer, we can pave the way towards improved outcomes and reduced cancer burden globally
