The current study investigates theeffect of plant abstract of Wild Safflower(Carthamasoxycantha) on Hela cell (cancer
cell) that thought it works as anticancer drugs. Thesamples of theCarthamasoxycanthaare taken from thewest desert of
Iraq while Hela cell supply by Iraqi Biochemistry company.Carthamasoxycanthauses asoily and aqueous
extraction,anditsuses in many of different concentrations (eight concentrations) (7.81, 15.62, 31.25, 62.5, 125, 250,
500, 1000) µg /ml for each extract, and for 24,48, and 72 hours of exposure time. The final results show a gradually
cellular toxic effect of extracts on Hela cell lines growth. Also, there are some differences in the effect of these
extracts based on the extracts concentration and the time. The cytotoxic effect of the extracts kills 50% of cells
(CC50) for each extract.Furthermore, we found the aqueous extract most potent cytotoxic extracts on Hela cell
than oily extract. HeLa cells were the most sensitive to high concentrations, whatever the concentration increase; it
will inhibitthe Hela cell more. Active compounds such as Triterpene concreted in flower, oleic acidandlinoleic
acidhaveantitumor activity. As concluding, Carthamasoxycanthaextracts (aqueous or oily) have a great role in inhibition
of cancer growth.
