Article Synopsis
- Microscopic and histological studies indicate that the ethanol extract of Strobilanthes crispus can reduce azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colonic aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in rats, suggesting a potential role in cancer prevention.
- The leaf of S. crispus is rich in phenolic compounds, which are believed to act as antioxidants and combat oxidative stress, a factor that can lead to cancer.
- The study found that S. crispus not only reduced markers of colorectal carcinogenesis but also affected various biochemical pathways, showing promise as a chemopreventive agent against colon cancer.
