Abstract

Vernonia cinerea, an indigenous medicinal plant in Agasthiyar Hills, exhibits potent anticancer properties and cytotoxic effects. Research has revealed its ability to prevent the proliferation of cancer cells through several mechanisms, including the induction of apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Bioactive compounds from Vernonia cinerea have shown inhibitory effects on key pathways involved in the development of many cancers. Furthermore, the plant's cytotoxicity against many cancer cells shows its potential as a therapeutic agent. Studies have elucidated the effects of Vernonia cinerea on the viability of cancer cells and have highlighted its ability to selectively target malignant cells. In addition to everyday cells. The phytochemical composition of this medicinal plant, rich in secondary metabolites, is reported to contribute to its anticancer activity.
