In search for plant-derived cytotoxicity compound against human cancer cells (A549, SK-OV-3, SK-MEL-2, XF498, HCT15), it was found that the chloroform extracts obtained from the whole plant of Carpesium rosulatum MlQ. (Compositae) exhibited significant cytotoxic activity. Four sesquiterpene lactone, CRC1 (2α, 5-epoxy-5,10-dihydroxy-6-angeloyl-oxy-9β-isobutyloxy-germacran-8α,12-olide), CRC2 (2α,5-epoxy-5,10-dihydroxy-6α,9β-diangeloyloxy-germacran-8α,12-olide), CRC3 (2α,5-epoxy-5,10-dihydroxy-6α-angeloyloxy-9β-(3-methyl-butanoyloxy)-gemacran-8α,12-olide), CRC4 (2β,5-epoxy-5,10-dihydroxy-6α,9β-diangeloyloxy-germacran-8α,12-olide) were isolated from the whole parts of C. rosulatum. 2α,5-epoxy-5,10-dihydroxy-6α,9β-diangeloyloxy-germacran-8α,12-olide (CRC2) showed the most potent cytotoxicity with IC50 value of 6.01 μM against SK-MEL-2.

In the search for antiproliferative compounds against human cancer cells (A549, SK-OV-3, SK-MEL-2, XF498, HCT15), it was found that the chloroform extracts obtained from the whole plant of Carpesium rosulatum Miq. (Compositae) exhibited significant cytotoxic activity. Two sesquiterpene lactones, CT-1 (2α,5-epoxy-5,10-dihydroxy-6-angeloyloxy-9β-isobutyloxy-germacran-8α,12-olide), and CT-2 (2β,5-epoxy-5,10-dihydroxy-6α,9β-diangeloyloxy-germacran-8α,12-olide) were isolated from the whole plant. CT-2 showed the most potent cytotoxicity with an IC50 value of 7.88 μM against SK-MEL-2.

From the whole plant of Dendrobium signatum, a new bibenzyl-dihydrophenanthrene derivative, named dendrosignatol was isolated, together with the known compounds 3,4-dihydroxy-3,4′-dimethoxybibenzyl, dendrocandin B, dendrocandin I and dendrofalconerol A. The structure of the new compound was elucidated through analysis of its spectroscopic and mass spectrometric data. All of the isolates showed appreciable cytotoxic activity against three human cancer cell lines, including MDA-231, HepG2 and HT-29 cells.

Abstract Seven flavonoids isolated from chloroform , ethyl acetate and butanol extracts, obtained from the aerial parts of Retama sphaerocarpa, have been assessed for cytotoxic activity against three human cancer cell lines: TK-10 (renal adenocarcinom a), MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinom a) and UACC-62 (m elanom a), using the SRB assay. All of them , extracts and flavonoids, were actives in, at least, one of the three cell lines at the recom m ended N ational C ancer Institute doses. They produce a d ose-dependent inhibition of cell grow th at concentrations in the 10-6-10-4 ᴍ and 25 -250 μg/ml range for the flavonoids and extracts respectively, being the flavonol rhamnazin the most cytotoxic.

Zanthoxylum nitidum (Roxb.) DC (Rutaceae) is a traditional medicine used for the treatment of various diseases like toothache, gingivitis, fever, colic vomiting, diarrhea, and cholera. Three new alkaloids, zanthocadinanine C (1), 7-methoxy-8-demethoxynitidine (2), and zanthonitiside I (3) were isolated from the stems and twigs of Z. nitidum. Their structures were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic, including 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectroscopy data. Compounds 1–3 were evaluated for cytotoxic activity against 5 human cancer cell lines, KB, MCF-7, LNCaP, HepG-2, and LU-1. Compound 2 showed significant cytotoxic activity against all tested human cancer cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 10.3 to 12.6 µM.
