Artemisinin: A Promising Adjunct for Cancer Therapy.

Yamna Waseem1, Choudhary A Hasan1, Furqan Ahmed2.   

Abstract

Artemisinin is a herb derived from Artemesia annua (also known as sweet wormwood) and is known for its use as effective antimalarial pharmacotherapy. Recent studies have shown that artemisinin has anti-angiogenic and growth inhibition effects, as well as an apoptotic ability secondary to its inherent endo-peroxidase activity.
