Cancer is a fatal disease with a collection of related diseases in various body parts. The conventional therapies cannot show the desired results of treatment due to their imprecise targeting, deprived drug delivery, and side effects. Therefore, it is required to make the drug engineered so that it can target only cancerous cells and inhibit its growth and proliferation. Nanotechnology is a technology that can target and differentiate between cancerous cells and the body's normal cells. Silver itself is a good anticancer and antibacterial agent and employing it with phytochemicals with anticancer properties, and nanotechnology can give the best approach for the treatment. The synthe-sis of silver nanoparticles using plant extracts is an economical, energy-efficient, low-cost approach, and it doesn’t need any hazardous chemicals. In the present review, we discussed different methods of synthesis of silver nanoparticles using herbal extracts and their role against cancer therapy along with the synergistic role of silver and plant extracts against cancer in the formulation. |
