Cancer of the breast is the mainly prevalent class of cancer in females diagnosed over the globe. It also happens to be the 2nd most prevalent reason of cancer-related deaths among females worldwide. Some of the most common type's therapies for carcinoma of the breast involve radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and resection. Many studies are being conducted to develop new therapeutic strategies for better diagnosis of breast cancer. An enormous number of anticancer medications have been developed as a result of growing understanding of the molecular pathways behind the advancement of cancer. Over the past few decades, the general survival rate has not greatly increased due to the usage of chemically manufactured medications. Therefore, in order to increase the effectiveness of current cancer treatments, new tactics and cutting-edge chemoprevention drugs are required. Phytochemicals, which are naturally occurring molecules derived from plants, are important sources for both cancer therapy and innovative medication development. These phytochemicals frequently work by controlling molecular pathways linked to the development and spread of cancer. Increasing antioxidant status, inactivating carcinogens, preventing proliferation, causing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and immune system control are some of the specific ways. This primary objective of this review is to provide an overview of the active ingredients found in natural goods, including information on their pharmacologic action, molecular targets, and current state of knowledge. We have given a thorough description of a number of natural substances that specifically target the pathways linked to breast carcinoma in this study. We've conducted a great deal of study on a few natural compounds that may help us identify novel targets for the detection of breast carcinoma.
乳腺癌是全球女性中诊断出的最主要的癌症类型。它也是全球女性癌症相关死亡的第二大常见原因。一些最常见的乳腺癌治疗方法包括放射治疗、化疗和切除术。目前正在进行许多研究以开发新的治疗策略,用于更好地诊断乳腺癌。由于对癌症发展背后分子途径的认识不断增加,已经开发出大量抗癌药物。在过去几十年中,由于使用化学合成药物,总体生存率并未大幅提高。因此,为了提高当前癌症治疗的有效性,需要新的策略和前沿的化学预防药物。植物化学物质是源自植物的天然存在的分子,是癌症治疗和创新药物开发的重要来源。这些植物化学物质通常通过控制与癌症发展和扩散相关的分子途径起作用。增加抗氧化状态、使致癌物失活、防止增殖、导致细胞周期停滞和凋亡以及控制免疫系统等是一些具体方式。本综述的主要目的是概述天然产物中发现的活性成分,包括其药理作用、分子靶点和当前知识状态的信息。在本研究中,我们对一些专门针对与乳腺癌相关途径的天然物质进行了全面描述。我们对一些天然化合物进行了大量研究,这些化合物可能有助于我们确定乳腺癌检测的新靶点。
