Systematic review explores plant extracts' potential against gastric cancer, highlighting bioactive properties.
Background and Aims Gastric cancer is a global health concern with high morbidity and mortality. This systematic review evaluates the potential of plant extracts in the prevention of gastric cancer by analyzing their bioactive mechanisms. Methods A total of 62 studies—including in vitro, in vivo, and clinical trials—were analyzed, focusing on their antiproliferative, proapoptotic, antiangiogenic, and anti‐inflammatory properties. Results Extracts such as Marsdenia tenacissima , Curcuma longa , and Rhus verniciflua showed significant promise. Conclusion Despite these findings, issues surrounding bioavailability, dosing standardization, and long‐term safety require further investigation before clinical translation.
