چکیده

ABSTRACT A continuing search for tumor inhibitors from plant sources has yielded over two hundred extracts with reproducible growth-inhibitory activity. Systematic fractionation, guided by assay in cell culture and animal tumor systems, has led to the isolation of the active principles of more than sixty plants. Chemical studies of novel sesquiterpene lactones, diterpenoid quinone methides, steriod lactones and other terpenoid tumour inhibitors are discussed.
