Anticancer activityof alkaloids of Madagascar Periwinkle Catharanthusroseus (L.)G.Don against two cancer cell line

Abstract

In the present study , Madagascar Periwinkle Catharanthus roseus (L.)G.Don
alkaloids were evaluated against two cancer cell lines :larynx human cancer cell line Hep2,and
mouse

,
by
using
four  concentrations
for each cell  line (25,12.5,6,25,3.125)mg/ml(in
