ABSTRACT
Cancer is nothing but the anonymous growth of tissues and improper vascular supply to the body.
Plant based medicines are grabbing attraction as an efficient source of anticancer pharmacophores
because of its easy availability, comparatively cheaper and least side effects. World Health
Organization is nowadays encouraging the applications of ancient medicines having great efficiency
and least toxicity. In present review attempted comprehensive study related to a plant having
anticancer activities along with its chemical compositions such as flavonoids, saponins,
curcuminoids, etc as well as its possible mechanism of action against carcinoma cell lines like,
apoptosis via., intrinsic and extrinsic pathways, cell cycle disruption and the levels of various vital
parameters-reactive oxygen species (ROS), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and cyclin
dependent kinases (CDKs). The constituents from the different parts of Glycyrrhiza glabra are safe
for its pharmaceutical implementation for the treatment of cancer and its variable mechanisms of
action against different carcinoma cell lines are making it an efficient plant based pharmacological
scaffold for the treatment of cancer.
