Green Nanotechnology of < em > Yucca filamentosa < /em > - Phytochemicals-Functionalized Gold Nanoparticles-Antitumor Efficacy Against Prostate and Breast Cancers

CONCLUSION: Overall, these Y. filamentosa phytochemicals functionalized nano-Ayurvedic medicine agents demonstrated selective toxicity to cancer cells while sparing normal cells. Most notably, to our knowledge, this is the first study that shows YF-AuNP's targeting efficacy toward pro-tumor macrophage cell lines, suggesting an immunomodulatory pathway for cancer treatment. This work introduces a novel avenue for herbal and nano-Ayurvedic approaches to human cancer treatment, mediated through selective efficacy and immunomodulatory potential.PMID:38106675 | PMC:PMC10723618 | DOI:10.2147/NSA.S437812
