Colorectal cancer and medicinal plants: Principle findings from recent studies.
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy 2018 November
Colorectal cancer is one of the most frequent malignancies in the world. Although recent advances in chemotherapy have improved management and survival of colorectal cancer patients, side effects and resistance to chemotherapy have shown the limitations of current chemotherapy and led to the search for alternative treatments. In this context, medicinal plants provide a large number of molecules with proven cytotoxic and apoptogenic activities against several types of cancers including colorectal cancer. These molecules belong to various phytochemical families and trigger different signaling pathways. Here, we review the recent findings regarding the anti-colorectal cancer activities of several plants, both in vitro and in vivo, and the phytochemical molecules possibly responsible for these activities. Besides, their effects on several cancer signaling pathways are discussed. This review highlights the importance of medicinal plants as promising sources of lead anti-colorectal molecules.
