Selective Killing Natural Products and Drugs in Oral Cancer Treatments

Journal Title: Dental Research and Management - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

Most cancer drugs are effective to kill cancer cells but also harm normal cells. Drugs and natural products with the selective killing effect may be helpful to solve this problem. The side effects of many anticancer drugs are partly derived from its damage to both cancer and normal cells without selection. This problem raises the need of anticancer drug discovery with the selective killing effect.
