Abstract

Abstract: The process known as “programmed cell death” is referred to as “apoptosis,” a term frequently used in scientific research. Typically, the body's own system eliminates damaged cells by identifying defective ones and activating their destruction in response to various signals. However, if its precise mechanisms are understood, apoptosis can also be intentionally induced by external factors. Herbal substances have been found to contain various ingredients that can trigger apoptosis. Breast cancer, a highly fatal condition, is caused by the uncontrolled division of abnormal cells. This uncontrolled cell division is the underlying cause of the disease. Currently, there is no ideal solution to this problem. However, apoptosis has the potential to be a highly effective therapeutic strategy for treating this devastating disease. In the near future, herbal medicines could treat breast cancer by inducing apoptosis in tumor cells. These herbal treatments offer fewer adverse reactions compared to current chemical therapies, which often have numerous unwanted side effects. This review article examines the process of apoptosis and various herbal remedies found in studies to effectively induce apoptosis in breast cancer cells. This review article is significant because it highlights the focus on apoptosis as a therapeutic strategy and the potential of herbal remedies in treating breast cancer. This underscores the importance of exploring natural substances in developing safer and more effective treatments for a lethal disease.
