Anti-tumor activity of Eurycoma longifolia root extracts against K-562 cell line: in vitro and in vivo study.
Eurycoma longifolia Jack has been widely used in traditional medicine for its antimalarial, aphrodisiac, anti-diabetic, antimicrobial and anti-pyretic activities. Its anticancer activity has also been recently reported on different solid tumors, however no anti-leukemic activity of this plant has be...
