Among the proposed synthesis methods for CNPs, biosynthesis using natural extracts, offers an eco‑friendly and convenient approach for producing CNPs, particularly for biomedical applications. In this study, a novel method of biosynthesis using the aqueous extract of Eucalyptus camaldulensis leaves was used to synthesize CNPs. Scanning electron microscopy and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques revealed that the synthesized CNPs exhibit a flower‑like morphology. The particle size ofCNPs obtained using Powder X‑ray diffraction peaks and TEM as 13.43 and 39.25 nm. Energy‑dispersiveX‑ray spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the effect of biomolecules during the synthesis process and the formation ofCNPs. The cytotoxicity of biosynthesized samples was evaluated using the MTT method demonstrating the potential of these samples to inhibit MCF‑7 cancerous cells. The viability of the MCF‑7 cell line conducted by live/dead imaging assay confirmed the MTT cytotoxicity method and indicated their potential to inhibit cancerous cells. Furthermore, the successful uptake ofCNPs by MCF‑7 cancer cells, as demonstrated by confocal microscopy, provides evidence that the intracellular pathway contributes to the anticancer activity of the CNPs. In general, results indicate that the biosynthesized CNPs exhibit significant cytotoxicity against the MCF‑7 cancerous cell line, attributed to their high surface area.  \nKeywords Nanoceria, MCF-7 cell line, Breast cancer, MTT assay, Biosynthesis, Eucalyptus camaldulensis  \nCerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs) have become one of the most promising nanomaterials, especially in medical and health fields in the last two decades1. CNPs have some unique physicochemical and biological therapeutic properties such as antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal2, anti-inflammatory3, anticancer4, antioxidant5, and multienzyme mimic activity6. Depending on surface characteristics and immediate environment, CNPs exert either anti-or pro-oxidative activity which regulates reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in biological systems7,8. These applications are strongly dependent on the chemistry of cerium atoms and CNPs due to their screening effect and the nature of 4f orbitals. It has been reported that cerium can exist in both Ce3+ and Ce4+ oxidation states and due to the ease of switching between Ce3+ and Ce4+ at the nanoparticle surface, CNPs might have the potential of mimicking several natural enzymes, such as superoxide oxidase, catalase, oxidase, and phosphatase. Since these enzymes control intracellular ROS levels, CNPs may be able to prevent the growth of cancer9–12.
