Silymarin's anti-cancer activity has been reported in multiple types of cancers such as lung cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, and prostate cancer. It has been observed that silymarin is able to inhibit cancer cell proliferation and invasion by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. One of the most promising aspects of silymarin is its ability to enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. A study conducted on human lung cancer cells showed that silymarin in combination with cisplatin resulted in a higher inhibition of cancer cell proliferation and increased apoptosis. Similarly, another study conducted on breast cancer cells showed that the combination of silymarin and tamoxifen (a drug used in breast cancer treatment) resulted in a synergistic effect in inhibiting cancer cell growth. Another important feature of silymarin is its ability to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. A study conducted on breast cancer patients showe...
