Mozaffarul Islam studies how natural substances such as snake and scorpion venoms, plant-derived compounds, and drug combinations can trigger cancer cell death, focusing mainly on breast and colorectal cancer cell lines. The research examines cellular mechanisms like reactive oxygen species generation, DNA damage, and apoptosis (programmed cell death), as well as nanoparticle-based delivery methods for these treatments. This work sits at the intersection of cancer biology, toxinology (the study of biological toxins), and pharmacology.
Publication output was sparse and irregular in the mid-2010s to early 2020s but has increased noticeably since 2023, with 2024 being the most productive year in the past decade.
