4-Methoxycinnamyl alcohol showed toxicity to MCF-7, HeLa and DU145 cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 14.24, 7.82 and 22.10 μg/mL, respectively. 4-Methoxycinnamyl alcohol was isolated from Foeniculum vulgare. 4-Methoxycinnamyl alcohol did not show apoptotic effects but showed necrosis after 48 h in a 10 μg/mL DNA fragmentation study.

2-Desoxy-4-epi-pulchellin has potent in vitro cytotoxicities against the K562, MCF-7, Hela, DU145, U937, H1975, SGC-7901, A549, MOLT-4, and HL60 cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 0.10 to 46.7uM, while it shows significant antiviral (H1N1 and H3N2) activities, it also displays significant antimycobacterial activity (IC50=7.6 uM).

Effusanin A has antibacterial activity. It exhibits DNA-damaging activity in assay which employed DNA-repair deficient (RAD 52Y) and repair proficient (RAD +) yeast strains. Effusanin A shows inhibitory effects on DU145 cells with IC50 value of 3.16 micro

Isoangustone A has antitumor activity, it can induce G1 cycle arrest in DU145 human prostate and 4T1 murine mammary cancer cells, it inhibits cell proliferation by targeting PI3K, MKK4, and MKK7 in human melanoma. Isoangustone A dampens mesangial sclerosis associated with inflammation in response to high glucose through hindering TGF-β and NF-κB signaling. Isoangustone A also shows strong ferric reducing activities and effectively scavenged DPPH, ABTS(+), and singlet oxygen radicals.

Cycloartane-3,24,25-triol has potential for development as an anti-cancer agent against prostate cancer. It reduces the viability of PC-3 and DU145 cell lines with IC50 values of 2.226 ± 0.28 μM and 1.67 ± 0.18 μM respectively.

Bonducellpin D may show inhibitory activities on the Para3 virus. It also exhibits moderate activity against four tested human cancer cell lines, HepG-2, K562, HeLa, and Du145.

(19R,23E)-5b,19-Epoxy-19-ethoxycucurbita-6,23-diene-3b,25-diol, a cucurbitane-type triterpenoid, exhibited no activity against five cancer cell lines—MCF-7, HepG2, Du145, Colon205, and HL-60—when evaluated using the MTT assay [1].

1,4-O-Diferuloylsecoisolariciresinol(9,9'-Di-O-(E)-feruloylsecoisolariciresinol),and pierreione B, two novel inhibitors of mTOR signaling, have strong anticancer activity. (+)-9,9'-O-Diferuloylsecoisolariciresinol has significant cytotoxic activity agains

1. Oxypeucedanin ((+-)-Oxypeucedanin) has novel anticancer effect, mediated via induction of G2-M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human prostate carcinoma DU145 cells. 2. Oxypeucedanin is a kind of open-channel blocker of the hKv1.5 channel and it prolongs the APD; therefore, it is an excellent candidate as an antiarrhythmic drug for atrial fibrillation.

1. Decursin (Decursinol angelate) is able to attenuate kainic acid-induced seizures and could have potential as an antiepileptic drug. 2. Decursin exhibits hepatoprotective effects , potentially by inhibiting the TGF-β1 induced NOX activation and Smad signaling. 3. Decursin has anti-cancer activity , mediated suppression of the PKCα, MAPK and NF-κB pathways in MCF-7 cells. 4. Decursin exhibits cytotoxicity against various human cancer cells and to possess anti-amnesic activity in vivo through the inhibition of AChE activity.

Alopecurone A demonstrates potent inhibitory effects on MRP1, exhibits cytotoxic activity against DU145 (prostate cancer cell line) and MCF-7 (breast cancer cell line) with IC50 values of 2.44 and 5.44 μg/mL, respectively, and possesses antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Podophyllotoxinone, a natural compound found in Dysosma versipellis, shows inhibitory activity against L1210 leukemia and KB cells in vitro.

Amygdalin (Laetrile) has antifibrotic, antitumor, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, amygdalin joint HSYA could inhibit the degeneration of the endplate chondrocytes derived from intervertebral discs of rats induced by IL-1beta and better than the single use of Amygdalin or HSYA. Amygdalin induces apoptotic cell death in human DU145 and LNCaP prostate cancer cells by caspase-3 activation through down-regulation of Bcl-2 and up-regulation of Bax.

D-Allose (β-D-Allopyranose) is a rare naturally occurring monosaccharide known to exert anti-proliferative effects on cancer cells. The effects of D-Allose on the cellular membranes of hormone-refractory prostate cancer cell line (DU145), hormone-sensitive prostate cancer cell line (LNCaP), and normal prostate epithelial cells (PrEC) were studied at the molecular level by phospholipid profiling using a shotgun lipidomic method.

Astaxanthin (trans-Astaxanthin) is a keto-carotenoid in the terpenes class of chemical compounds. It is classified as a xanthophyll but it is a carotenoid with no vitamin A activity. It is present in most red-colored aquatic organisms. Astaxanthin has shown to mediate anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory actions. It may be found in fish feed or some animal food as a color additive.
