Cancer disease is known due to its unregulated proliferation of cells that have evolved from the body's regular cells. The disease develops as a result of epigenetic and genetic modifications, tumor suppressor gene inactivation, and oncogene activation. The present work describes an environmentally benign approach for the synthesis of manganese oxide nanoparticles (MnO 2 NPs) using Gmelina arborea fruit extract (GAE) in an aqueous medium.
