| Summary: | The lack of expression of hormone and human epidermal growth factor receptors in breast cancer conditions has made moleculartargeted therapies unsuitable and establishing therapeutic strategies are challenging for such cancers. Screening of methanolic extract of seeds of Annona muricata against
4T1 triple negative breast cancer cells has showed evidenced cytotoxicity against cancer cells. Hence fractionation of the extract was carried out and the fraction was analysed for its phytochemical constituents and anti
proliferative effect. The phytoconstituents when anlaysed using Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectroscopy revealed the presence of annonaceous acetogenins. The results of the present study reveal the anti proliferative effect of chloroform fraction of methanolic extract of seeds of A. muricata. It can be concluded that the chloroform fraction of methanolic extract of A. muricata exerts anti proliferative effect due to the presence of annonaceous acetogenins. |
