Abstract: Cancer has emerged as a life threatening non-communicable disease and it is characterized by the abnormal proliferation, invasiveness and metastasis of cells. During the last few decades, there has been a sudden increase in the cancer global burden due to the change in life style, environment, genetic variation, virus infection etc. which directly or indirectly responsible for the cancer development [1]. Among all the cancers, skin carcinogenesis are the most prevalent as it represents almost one third of all the newly diagnosed cases. Melanoma and non-melanoma are the two major categories of skin cancer. Anticancer activity of Delonix regia against skin cancer is studied in the present paper.
