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.
