- Pancreatic cancer has a five-year survival rate of only 10%, with rising incidence globally.
- Chemotherapy is a basic treatment, but multidrug resistance reduces its efficacy.
- Plant-derived chemicals have a long history of safe use and offer advantages like fewer side effects and lower costs.
- Compounds like paclitaxel, derived from plants, are effective in cancer treatment.
- Recent studies show plant-derived chemicals can inhibit tumor proliferation and reverse drug resistance.
- Clinical trials demonstrate promising therapeutic effects of plant-based compounds in cancer treatment.
- This review highlights the potential of plant-derived compounds as alternative therapies for pancreatic cancer.
- The mechanisms of drug resistance in pancreatic cancer are not fully understood.
- Plant-based compounds offer a promising direction for safer and more effective treatment options.
