Evaluation of the Anti-Liver Cancer Activity of Protein Fractions Isolated from Adenium obesum Leaf Extract
The findings of this investigation demonstrated that the protein content of fraction 8 derived from A. obesum leaf extract possesses anticancer activity in the HepG2 cell line. The two isolated proteins from this fraction are novel and have been reported for the first time. Further investigations should be performed to evaluate the treatment potential in in vitro/vivo conditions.
