Secundiflorol G (SG) is an isoflavan isolated from the root bark of Aeschynomene fascicularis, a Mayan medicinal plant used to treat cancer-like symptoms. SG has been shown to have cytotoxic effects on cervical cancer cells (HeLa). Assays were done to identify the mechanisms of SG's cytotoxic

The aim of the present study is to take advantage of the unique property of polyisoprenoid chains to adopt a compact molecular conformation and to use these natural and biocompatible lipids as nanocarriers of drugs to deliver siRNA. A new chemical strategy is applied here to conjugate squalene (SQ)

OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential of plants used in Mayan traditional medicine to treat cancer-like symptoms using the Mayan ethnobotany literature, and evaluate their organic extracts for in vitro cytotoxic activity on cancer cell lines. METHODS The selection of the plants studied in this
