Article Synopsis
- Cervical cancer is primarily associated with HPV types 16 and 18, and the study investigates the antiviral and anticancer potential of Tanacetum sinaicum essential oil (EO) on human cervical and breast cancer cell lines.
- The EO was extracted and characterized, and its effects on cell viability were measured; it was found to significantly reduce the growth of cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner, with higher concentrations leading to over 95% inhibition.
- Additionally, the EO effectively decreased HPV replication in the tested cell lines and exhibited autophagy-enhancing and genotoxic effects, suggesting its potential roles in cancer treatment.
