Abstract

Anthocyanins are potent anticarcinogenic properties against several cancers thus demonstrating potential for cancer prevention. In the present study, we have investigated the chemopreventive effects of anthocyanin extracted from Musa acuminata bract against human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7). Acidified methanolic extracts from Musa acuminata bract has shown 12.24% inhibition at 1000µg/ml concentration against MCF-7 cell line. Results indicated that anthocyanin from Musa acuminata bract extracts had strong antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 cell lines at varying concentration. These results encourage the bioactive constituents as chemopreventive agents for human breast cancer.
