Abstract:The primary goal of this research was to determine the cytotoxic potential of an aqueous extract of Vitex leucoxylon aerial parts on the lung cancer A549 and non-small cell lung cancer NCIH-460 cell lines. The Soxhlet apparatus and distilled water were used for the extraction
of the medicinal plant. The MTT in vitro assay was used to test the compounds for anticancer activity against two different lines of lung cancer. The cytotoxic activity of V. leucoxylon in the present study was very substantial as measur… Show more
