Cervical

Clerodendrum viscosum (CV) has been employed for the treatment of cervical cancer. A water extract fraction (Cv-AP) from the root of CV was evaluated for its anti-cervical cancer cell bioactivity. Results indicate that Cv-AP possesses pro-apoptotic, anti-proliferative, and anti-migratory activity in a dose-dependent fashion against cervical cancer cell lines (Sun et al., 2013).
