Amelioratic Effects Of Boswellic Acid On Various Diseases

Abstract

Phytomedicines are effective & have little adverse effects, particularly boswellic acids (BAs), are increasingly being used to treat complex diseases like cancer. Oleogum resin, often known as frankincense, is extracted from Boswellia plant species & used to produce BAs. The frankincense combination contains a range of BAs, each having its unique potential for treating certain tumours. This study examines the features of BAs, their anti-cancer properties, mechanisms, & role of semi-synthetic derivatives of Bas in cancer treatment. It also investigates the biological origins of BAs, conservation strategies, & biotechnology's capacity to conserve & boost BA production in vitro. The review assesses that BAs & semi-synthetic derivatives are effective against a wide variety of cancer cell types. The review is beneficial to researchers seeking greater information on BAs & BA-based medicines for effective & affordable cancer therapy. BAs are postulated as potential therapy for brain cancer because of their ability to suppress the growth of cells; relocation; cancer metastases; angiogenesis; & cause cancer cell death.
