Abstract

In the current period of drug development, natural products have provided an unrivaled supply of anticancer medications. By modifying the cancer microenvironment and various signaling pathways, natural products and their derivatives and analogs play a significant role in cancer treatment. These substances are effective against several signaling pathways, particularly the cell death pathways (apoptosis and autophagy) and embryonic developmental pathways (Notch, Wnt, and Hedgehog pathways). Natural products have a long history, but more research is needed to understand their current function in the research and development of cancer treatments and the potential for natural products to serve as a significant source of therapeutic agents in the future. Several target-specific anticancer medications failed to treat cancer, necessitating research into natural compounds with multiple target properties. To help develop a better treatment plan for managing breast cancer, this review has outlined the anticancerous potential of several therapeutic approaches targeting the notch signaling system in breast tumors.
