Abstract

Sage (salvia) species have been used for a long time to relief pain; protect the body against viral and bacterial infection and inflammation, treatment of life‑threatening diseases as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Many studies advocated sage species for drug development because of their recorded therapeutic effects including anti-proliferative and cytotoxic effects against malignant cells.
Objective: Evaluate the anticancer effect of salvia extract.
Materials and Methods: A pure extracts from ground leaves of salvia were added to nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line and to normal cell line as a control.
Results: Anti-proliferative effects of Salvia showed the highest cytotoxic effect against nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line after 28 h of influence. We observed no anti-proliferative effects on the healthy cell line.
Conclusions: Our results confirmed the potent genotoxic and anti-proliferative properties of Salvia against laryngeal cancer cell line.
