Breast cancer is the most prevalent form of cancer in women globally, and TNBC (triple-negative breast cancer) is its aggressive type since it lacks the usual targets. JAK2/STAT3 pathway can be an important lead in anticancer drug discovery, as restraining the downstream signalling of this pathway results in the induction of cell apoptosis. Moreover, various limitations associated with chemotherapy are the reason to find an alternative herbal-based therapy. For this study, we collected Urtica dioica and U. parviflora from different regions of Uttarakhand, followed by preparation of their leaf and stem extracts in different solvents. The GC-MS analysis of these extracts revealed a total of 175 compounds to be present in them. Further, by molecular docking approach, we studied the interaction between these compounds and JAK2, and 12 major compounds with better binding energy than the control Paclitaxel were identified. In addition, the selected hits were also reported to display better pharmacokinetic properties. Moreover, extracts from both the Urtica spp. displayed significant anticancer activity against MDA-MB-231(TNBC cell line) and exhibited lower cytotoxicity in healthy cell lines, i.e. HEK293T, indicating that these extracts were safer to use. Hence, the findings in our study can be crucial in the area of herbal-based target-specific drug development against breast cancer.
