Background
Natural products from herbal medicines have long been investigated for their potentials as cancer therapeutics. Besides the development of several herbal medicine-derived anti-cancer agents, such as paclitaxel, vincristine and podophyllotoxin, many recent laboratory findings demonstrated that brusatol, a quassinoid from the seeds of Brucea sumatrana, exhibits potent tumor suppressing effect with improved disease outcome. Our recent finding further demonstrated that brusatol synergizes with the intrinsic metabolic burden in cancer cells.
