Abstract
Essential oils (EOs), or the volatile fraction produced by aromatic plants,
possess a large number of biological activities. In the last few years, their possible use
in anticancer therapy has been under investigation. The anticancer potential of EOs
against leukemic diseases and their chemical composition have been reported in this
chapter, highlighting the in vitro studies against different cell models with their
cytotoxicity and the corresponding mechanism of action.
Keywords: Apoptosis induction, Chemical composition, Cytotoxicity, Essential oils, Leukemia cells, Leukemia diseases, Leukemia treatments.
