Abstract | BACKGROUND: α- Santalol, a terpenoid found in sandalwood oil, has been shown to inhibit cancer cell growth in vitro by inducing apoptosis. This study was performed to investigate the anticancer properties of α- santalol associated with the induction of apoptosis in cultured MCF-7 [ estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, and wild-type p53)] and MDA-MB-231 (ER-negative and mutant p53) breast cancer cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS: RESULTS: CONCLUSION:
