Abstract

The book chapter explores the diverse array of metabolites found in marine life, from algae to sponges to corals, highlighting their unique chemical structures and biological activities. The book explores how these marine metabolites have promising anticancer effects, such as reduction of tumor growth, induction of apoptosis, and suppression of metastasis, through a thorough assessment of study data. The mechanisms of action that underlie these effects are also covered, providing insight into their potential as cutting-edge treatment medicines for a range of cancer types. “Marine Metabolites as Anticancer Agents” also addresses the difficulties and prospects of using these substances for drugs development, including problems with extraction, synthesis, and sustainability. Overall, it provides insightful information on the potential of chemicals produced from marine sources as a rich source of anticancer drugs, offering promise for the advancement of cancer treatment in the future.
