Abstract :
Cancer is one of the major causes of human
catastrophe next to cardiovascular diseases. With the
advent of modern techniques like chemotherapy,
radiotherapy and surgical tools to treat cancer cells, the
cost factor and the risk of damage of healthy cells in the
surrounding tissue is the major concern. The anticancer
compounds derived from natural sources have little side
effects [1]. Out of 121 medicines used for cancer
treatment 90 have the plants origin.
However, comprehensive
study on structure based activity consistent to
para-clinical and clinical aspects is necessary to
establish these species as potential natural
substitute to cure cancer. The review will help for
future study.
