Cytotoxic evaluation of Curcumin and Quercetin in MCF-7 cell lines was performed to assess their potential anticancer activity. MCF-7 is a widely used breast cancer cell line, and evaluating the cytotoxic effects of the compounds on these cells can provide valuable information about their potential as an anticancer agent. Curcumin, a naturally occurring compound found in turmeric, has been extensively studied for its potential anticancer properties, including its effects on MCF-7 cell lines. MCF-7 cells are commonly used as a model for studying breast cancer. Quercetin, a flavonoid found in various fruits, vegetables, and plant-based foods, has also been studied for its potential anticancer effects, including its effects on MCF-7 cell lines. The combination of curcumin and quercetin has been investigated for its potential synergistic effects on MCF-7 cell lines, aiming to enhance the anticancer activity of both compounds. The synergistic effects observed in the combination of curcumin and quercetin on MCF-7 cells suggests that the compounds may act through complementary mechanisms, enhancing their individual anticancer activities.
