We previously reported that podophyllotoxin acetate (PA) inhibits the growth and proliferation of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells and also makes them more sensitive to radiation and chemotherapeutic agents. In an attempt to enhance PA activity, we synthesized 34 derivatives based on
The two new lignans 3α-O-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)desoxypodophyllotoxin (1) and 4-O-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)dehydropodophyllotoxin (2) were isolated from Cleistanthus boivinianus, together with the known lignans deoxypicropodophyllotoxin (3), (±)-β-apopicropodophyllin (4), (-)-desoxypodophyllotoxin (5),
A new cytotoxic (P-388 ED50 4 microgm/ml) arylnaphthalene lignan has been isolated from the Mexican medicinal plant Hyptis verticillata (Lamiaceae) and characterized as 5-methoxydehydropodophyllotoxin [1]. Eight additional lignans were also obtained by bioactivity-directed fractionation using the
