摘要： Abstract For years, a great deal of work has been carried out on proanthocyanidins extracted from various kinds of plants, of which grape seed proanthocyanidins (GSPs) attract most attention due to their benefi cial roles in human health. Indeed, GSPs have demonstrated substantial health benefi ts for a variety of disorders such as cancer, atherosclerosis, and cardiovascular diseases, to just name a few. In particular, GSPs inhibit cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in various human cancers, including head and neck carcinoma, gastrointestinal tumors, lung cancer, skin tumors, and reproductive tumors, which points them to be promising chemo-preventive and/or chemotherapeutic agents. In this setting, we summarized the eff ects of GSPs against various types of cancer with a focus on the detailed molecular mechanisms involving various signaling pathways of tumor cells, which may serve as a basis for development of improved chemo-preventive or therapeutic strategies for cancer
