Drugs have been developed to treat cancer. These drugs act to control the growth of cells. Medicinal plants have been sources of effective drugs used in the treatment of cancer over the past few decades. Testing of medicinal plants for their cancer chemotherapeutic functions involve the use of models of cancer cells. Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells are a common transplantable tumor that has been employed in several studies to mimic mammary tumor in animals. The tumor is able to survive and grow in animals. Several studies have shown the universality of the use of these tumor cells in testing for medicinal plants with anti-cancer properties.}, number={2}, publisher={Mehmet ÖZASLAN}
