Overview

Review highlights phytochemicals' anti-cancer activities and their molecular mechanisms for safer therapy alternatives.

Key Points

  • This review explores the role of phytochemicals in cancer prevention and treatment, focusing on their mechanisms and applications.
  • Literature survey of peer-reviewed articles and clinical studies from 2015 to 2025.
  • Utilized databases like PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science with specific search terms.
  • Evaluated the effects of various phytochemicals on cancer-related pathways.
  • Phytochemicals inhibit cell proliferation and induce apoptosis, impacting key oncogenic pathways.
  • Clinically approved drugs like paclitaxel validate the therapeutic potential of these compounds.
  • Ongoing studies show encouraging results for compounds such as curcumin and resveratrol.
