Novel heteroatom-incorporated antofine and cryptopleurine analogues were designed, synthesized, and tested against a panel of five cancer cell lines. Two new S-13-oxo analogues (11 and 16) exhibited potent cell growth inhibition in vitro (GI(50): 9 nM and 20 nM). Interestingly, both compounds
Various E-ring hydroxylated antofine and cryptopleurine analogues were designed, synthesized, and tested against five human cancer cell lines. Interesting structure-activity relationship (SAR) correlations were found among these new compounds. The most potent compound 13b was further tested against
Activity-monitored fractionation of the CHCl3 solubles of the MeOH extract of the roots of Ficus septica using cytotoxicity assay led to the isolation of twenty phenanthroindolizidine alkaloids, including ten new ficuseptines E-N and ten known compounds. The cytotoxic effects of some of the isolates
