Lucidenic acid C has anti-invasive effect, it shows significant inhibitory effects on PMA-induced MMP-9 activity and invasion of HepG(2 )cells.

Magnocurarine is a natural product from Magnolia officinalis.

Balanophonin shows potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, it has antioxidant, and anti-cancer activities. (±)-Balanophonin shows significant antibacterial activity against cariogenic oral streptococci, Streptococcus mutans and S. sobrinus.

Cephalotaxine is a benzazepine alkaloid isolated from Cephalotaxus harringtonia. It is a secondary alcohol, an organic heteropentacyclic compound, a benzazepine alkaloid, a benzazepine alkaloid fundamental parent, an enol ether, a tertiary amino compound and a cyclic acetal. Cephalotaxine is an antiviral as well as antitumor agent. It is useless for the treatment of infection by flaviviruses, but potentially useful in combined therapy against hepatitis B.

Vincristine-induced nociceptive painful sensation, may be due to its potential of antioxidative, neuroprotective and calcium channel inhibitory action.Vincristine can treat MM, ERK1/2, Akt, and NF-κB inhibitors are potentially useful as anti-MDR agents for the treatment of Vincristine-resistant MM. An inherited polymorphism in the promoter region of CEP72 was associated with increased risk and severity of Vincristine-related peripheral neuropathy. Vincristine is a vinca alkaloid with formula C46H56N4O10 found in the Madagascar periwinkle, Catharanthus roseus. It is used (commonly as the corresponding sulfate salt)as a chemotherapy drug for the treatment of leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma, breast cancer and head and neck cancer. It has a role as a drug, an antineoplastic agent, a tubulin modulator, a microtubule-destabilising agent and a plant metabolite.

Ganoderic acid gamma is a triterpenoid.

Ganosporeric acid A is a triterpenoid.

Polyporenic acid C shows inhibitory activity against human collagenase. Polyporenic acid C induces apoptosis through the death receptor-mediated apoptotic pathway where the activation of caspase-8 leads to the direct cleavage of execution caspases without the involvement of the mitochondria.

Veratramine exhibits cytotoxic activity against human tumor cell lines A549, PANC-1, SW1990 and NCI-H249. Veratramine shows hypotensive effect, the effect is directly positively correlated with the dosage. Veratramine is a piperidine alkaloid comprising the 14,15,16,17-tetradehydro derivative of veratraman having two hydroxy groups at the 3- and 23-positions. It derives from a hydride of a veratraman.

Hypaphorine is an amino acid betaine obtaine by exhaustive methylation of the alpha-amino group of L-tryptophan with concomitant deprotonation of the carboxy group. It has a role as a xenobiotic, a plant metabolite and a fungal metabolite. It is an amino-acid betaine, an indole alkaloid and a L-tryptophan derivative. Hypaphorine is an indole-3-acetic acid antagonist which specifically compete with indole-3-acetic acid in binding to the indole-3-acetic acid-binding site in plant peroxidases.Hypaphorine and endogenous indole-3-acetic acid counteract in controlling root hair elongation.

Etoposide is a beta-D-glucoside, an organic heterotetracyclic compound and a furonaphthodioxole. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent and a DNA synthesis inhibitor. It is functionally related to a podophyllotoxin and a 4'-demethylepipodophyllotoxin. Etoposide is a chemotherapy medication used for the treatments of a number of types of cancer. Etoposide inhibits DNA synthesis by forming a complex with topoisomerase II and DNA, it induces apoptosis in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.

Epinodosin induces significant DNA damage to HepG2 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner.Epinodosin has a biphasic, dose-dependent effect on root growth and a strong inhibitory effect on root hair development in Lactuca sativa L. seedlings.
