NCIt definition : A liquid extract preparation derived from pomegranate (Punica granatum) seeds with
antioxidant, and potential antineoplastic and chemopreventive activities. Pomegranate
liquid extract contains flavonoids which may promote differentiation and apoptosis
in tumor cells by down-regulating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and stimulating
migration inhibitory factor (MIF), thus inhibiting angiogenesis. Pomegranate liquid
extract flavanoids also scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) and, in some cell types,
may prevent ROS-mediated cell injury and death.;
