Periplocymarin is a cardiac glycoside with anticancer potential isolated from Periploca sepium and Periploca graeca.

8-Prenylnaringenin is a phytoestrogen with high estrogenic activity,

Flemiphilippin A has antioxidant activity, it shows DPPH radical scavenging activity with effective half maximal concentration (EC50) of 18.36 ug/mL. Flemiphilippinin A (5 ug/mL) exhibits some level of antitumor activity against human hepatocellular carci

Hellebrigenin, as a selective inhibitor of MAPK signaling pathways (ERK, p38, JNK) and XIAP, effectively suppresses Akt expression and phosphorylation. This compound activates endogenous apoptosis pathways (including mitochondrial membrane potential disruption, Caspase family activation, and PARP cleavage) while modulating apoptosis-related protein expression. Hellebrigenin also induces DNA double-strand breaks to activate the ATM pathway, inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and clonogenesis, primarily applied in research of oral squamous cell carcinoma and liver cancer.

11alpha,12alpha-Oxidotaraxerol palmitate shows selective cytotoxicity against HCT-8, Bel-7402, BGC-823, A549 and A2780.

Chlorovaltrate K shows moderate cytotoxicity against lung adenocarcinoma (A 549), metastatic prostate cancer (PC-3M), colon cancer (HCT-8) and hepatoma (Bel 7402) cell lines with IC50 values of 0.89-9.76 uM.

Jatamanvaltrate B shows cytotoxicity against lung adenocarcinoma (A549), metastatic prostate cancer (PC-3M), colon cancer (HCT-8),and hepatoma (Bel7402) cell lines.

Volvaltrate B shows cytotoxic activity against the lung adenocarcinoma (A549), metastatic prostate cancer (PC-3M), colon cancer (HCT-8), and hepatoma (Bel7402) cell lines, with IC50 values of 8.5, 2.0, 3.2, and 6.1 uM, respectively.

8-epi-Helenalin, a sesquiterpene lactone with anti-tumor properties, is derived from Inula britannica L. var. chinensis (Rupr.) Reg. It demonstrates cytotoxic activity against a range of cancer cell lines, with ED50 values of 12.2 μM for HL-60, 53.8 μM for A549, 9.1 μM for MCF7, 8.7 μM for HCT-15, 18.7 μM for SK-OV-3, and 8.3 μM for Malme-3M, indicating its potential for anti-tumor research [1].
