In-vitro anticancer activity of Chlorophytum tuberosumand Lagenaria siceraria
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) - Year 2018, Vol 13, Issue 6
Abstract
Both Chlorophytum tuberosum B. and Lagenaria siceraria are rich in antioxidant secondary metabolites like saponin, triterpenoids and flavonoids. Cytotoxicity and or anticancer activity of antioxidant phytochemicals like steroidal and triterpenoidal saponins, flavonoids is well elaborated in literature. Hence, aim of present study is to screen these plants for in-vitro anticancer activity against human cell lines MCF-7, HeLa, COLO-205, Hep-G2 and HL-60.
