Abstract

Cancer becomes a global disease and there is no proper treatment of cancer. Natural Products plays important role in the drug discovery of cancer. The plants Tinospora cordifolia (common name guloy) have been investigated by various in vitro. However, detailed investigations on anticancer properties of the selected medicinal plants are unknown. In this direction, we have studied the detailed anticancer activities of Tinospora cordifolia in cancer cells (A349, PC3, Cervical Cancer) using a cell proliferation assay and the ethanolic extract of plant showed potent inhibition against cancer cells (A549, Hela and PC3) compare to aqueous extract of Tinospora cordifolia.
