Article Synopsis
- Phytomedicines, particularly those derived from traditional practices like Ayurveda, are being explored for their immunity-boosting and anticancer properties, with Tulsi being a prominent example.
- Essential oils from Tulsi have shown potential in synthesizing gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), which could be effective against breast cancer cells, particularly in immunosuppressive conditions.
- The study found that these synthesized AuNPs not only demonstrated compatibility with blood but also induced significant cellular damage to cancer cells, suggesting a promising avenue for future cancer therapies.
