What is it about?
Breast cancer is one of the most common gynecological cancers in women; it is considered the fourth leading cause of death among other cancers. Despite new methods and drugs to treat breast cancer and the good results obtained with them, there are a variety of chemicals and natural products that have not yet been studied and tested as anticancer agents.

Why is it important?
- The bis-structured Schiff base is considered a new compound with prominent anti-cancer potential. - For the first time, the apoptotic, cytotoxic, and genotoxic properties of bis-structured Schiff base were studied in breast cancer cell lines at various concentrations.
Perspectives
- The current original study was performed using standard apoptotic and cytotoxic assays, such as single-cell gel electrophoresis assay (Comet assay), DNA fragmentation ladder, acridine orange assay for DNA damage, and ELISA to measure apoptosis.
