Anti-Tumor Natural Product Library

Catalog No. L6700

Cancer is a well-recognized global health problem responsible for 7.6 million deaths (13% of all deaths) worldwide, which is expected to rise to 13.1 million by 2030. It has long been recognized that natural products represent the richest source of high chemical diversity, providing the basis for identification of novel scaffold structures that serves as starting points for rational anticancer drug design. According to a recent review, 49% of drugs were either natural products or their derivatives that are used in cancer treatment. Moreover, between the year 2005 and 2010, 19 natural product-based drugs have been approved, among which 7, 10 and 2 have been classified as natural product (NP), semi-synthetic NPs and NP-derived drugs, respectively. Natural products have served as an effective source of drugs and drug leads. TargetMol carefully collects 1772 natural products from plants, animals, or microbes with known or potential antitumor activity, which is a powerful tool for your antitumor drug development and lead compounds screening.
