The search for new anti-cancer drugs is one of the most prominent research areas of natural products. Numerous active compounds isolated from Brazilian Cerrado plant species have been studied with promising results.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the cytotoxic potential of 412 extracts from Brazilian
A neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) based bioassay-guided phytochemical investigation on Simarouba berteroana led to the isolation of one new canthin-6-one-9-methoxy-5-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), seven known canthine alkaloids (2-8), two known quassinoids (9-10) and a known neo-lignan (11). The
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxic and anticancer activities of extracts from 7-species of endemic and native plants from Puerto Rico.
METHODS
The plant species selected for this study were Canella winterana, Croton discolor, Goetzea elegans, Guaiacum officinale,
Emerging advancements in anticancer drug discovery research are leaning towards the plant-based bioactive fractions, which is a cocktail of naturally abundant two or more substances with unique proportions, exhibiting greater potential to combat cancers than the individual molecules. Thus, isolation
While anticancer properties of Simarouba glauca (SG, commonly known as Paradise tree) are well documented in ancient literature, the underlying mechanisms leading to cancer cell death begin to emerge very recently. The leaves of SG have been used as potential source of anticancer agents in
Activity-guided fractionation of a chloroform-soluble extract of Simarouba glauca twigs collected from a plot in southern Florida, and monitored with a human epidermoid (KB) tumor cell line, afforded six canthin-6-one type alkaloid derivatives, canthin-6-one (1), 2-methoxycanthin-6-one (2),
