Abstract

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed but one of the aggressive cancers among the females worldwide. The currently employed treatments for breast cancers are invasive, painful and suffer from high costs. Plant kingdom is a rich source of diverse groups of therapeutic compounds and drugs which can serve as cost effective and less toxic alternative for the breast cancer therapy. Traditionally, Chinese Traditional Medicine (CTM) and Ayurveda systems have mention of effectiveness of many herbal drugs and formulations in breast cancer therapy. The preclinical studies have pointed out towards less explored potential of phytocompounds in breast cancer chemoprevention and treatment. Plant derived compounds exhibit strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immuno-modulatory and anti-angiogenic activities which may be efficiently targeted for breast cancer therapy.
