Human Breast Adenocarcinoma Cytotoxicity and Modulation of 7,12-Dimethylbenz[a]anthracene-Induced Mammary Carcinoma in Balb/c Mice by Acacia catechu (L.f.) Wild Heartwood

Conclusions. The present data strongly suggest that anticancer potentiality of (+)-catechin-rich AQCE may be attributable to its ability to positively modulate tumor markers as well as the antioxidant system that could decompose the peroxides and, thereby, offer a protection against lipid peroxidation and linked to the expression of transcription factors during DMBA-induced mammary carcinoma.
