Acacia plant to fight cancer

Acaccia victoriae is an Australian desert plant that produces molecules with natural anti-cancer properties. These molecules cause apoptose, that is, the physiological elimination of cells and prevent cell growth.

Apoptose does not occur in cancer, so too high cell growth and tumor formation occur. The idea of the researchers is to investigate the chemotherapeutic properties of these molecules to fight cancer.
