Cancer chemotherapy represents the cornerstone of management of a vast majority of neoplastic lesions. Adverse reactions of chemotherapy may affect the major body organs and represent deleterious health hazards for cancer patients. Recent studies are directed towards discovery of natural compounds of plant origin that have potential anticancer properties and may ameliorate the toxic effects induced by the traditional anticancer agents. This manuscript throws light on the potential role of the natural plants in cancer therapy.
