Impact of coconut kernel extract on carcinogen-induced skin cancer model: Oxidative stress, C-MYC proto-oncogene and tumor formation.

Coconut kernel extract (CKE) prevented skin tumor growth in mice by reducing oxidative stress and suppressing c-MYC overexpression. CKE showed higher antioxidant activity than ascorbic acid, making it a potential dietary antioxidant with anti-tumor properties.
