The equilibrium between reducing species and oxidizing species within the tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in a majority of biological processes, especially the apoptotic cell death process. When the balance of oxidizing and reducing molecules is broken by the increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS) concentration, the cancer cells will die, achieving the purpose of tumor treatment.
