Abstract

Cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide, with 10 million deaths reported in 2020. Current cancer treatments are inadequate, particularly for advanced-stage patients, with a high fatality rate. Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a significant barrier in cancer treatment. Plant-derived compounds have fewer side effects than chemotherapy and are being investigated for cancer prevention and treatment. The anticancer characteristics of medicinal plants and their bioactive compounds can limit cancer growth by modifying cell proliferation, differentiation, angiogenesis, death, and metastasis. RIn this study, we aimed to biosynthesize SeNPs from A. muricata extract and test their anti-cancer activity against the lung cancer cell line (A549) in vitro. The cell viability assay and dual staining assay results revealed A. muricata mediated SeNPs, decreases the cell growth almost 80% at 40μg/ml concentration and almost 50% of cell death in 20μg/ml concentration. Further studies in animal models and functional studies will be helpful to discovered the anticancer efficacy of AM-SeNPs.
