Abstract

Malagasy periwinkle, or Catharanthus roseus (CULTIVAR- ALBA), is a strong medicinal plant thathas been studied for its potentially therapeutic alkaloids. This research investigates the mechanisms ofaction of C. roseus (CULTIVAR- ALBA) vinca alkaloids and total alkaloids, with a particular emphasis ontheir anticancer properties. The wider consequences of anticancer therapies, such as possible side effectsand influence on general quality of life, are also investigated in this research. This study exploresmethods for reducing the severity of these side effects, which may ultimately enhance adherence andthe quality of care patients receive. Vinca alkaloids were successfully isolated and characterised from C.roseus (CULTIVAR- ALBA) in this work.
