BLMH (Bleomycin Hydrolase): BLMH is an enzyme that plays a key role in metabolizing and detoxifying the chemotherapeutic drug bleomycin. Bleomycin works by causing DNA damage in cancer cells but can also lead to lung toxicity as a side effect. BLMH helps break down bleomycin into harmless compounds, reducing this risk. Understanding BLMH’s function is important for improving cancer treatment and managing side effects, especially in patients receiving bleomycin-based therapies. Researchers continue to investigate ways to enhance the safety and effectiveness of these treatments.
