Phytoconstituents in Breast Cancer Prevention

Abstract

Background: In today's developing nations, breast cancer (BC) is among the foremost risk factor for women. The causes of mortality are still unclear, yet they are frequently related to socioeconomic level and way of life. Numerous clinical therapies have been employed up to this point, i.e.,radiotherapy, hormonal treatment, targeted treatment,mastectomy, and treatment with drugs etc.

Purpose: However, resistance development to chemotherapeutic drugs, radiation and hormonal therapy is one of the common problems for many of the patients with BC.Numerous studies have looked at the anti-cancer potential of natural products due to the fact that they are generally safe.Researchers' interest is being drawn by phytochemicals from plants that are thought to be bioactive. In this review the formation and progression of breast cancer were also studied, along with the mode’s of activity and regulatory function of these phytoconstituents in major signalling networks within the cell.

Conclusion:Phytoconstituents in Breast Cancer Prevention have potential future as well as the difficulties. So, need more study and instructions for experimental animals, medical research, and experimental in vitro and in vivo methods are critically evaluated.
