Research progress on antitumor action mechanism of Goniothalamus Genus
Goniothalamus genus contains the characteristic components styryl lactone and acetylarginine analogues,which have strong antitumour activity,and their unique action mechanism on the mitochondrial membrane or mitochondrial respiratory system of tumour cells leading to cell apoptosis has attracted great attention.In recent years,a large number of compounds with cytotoxic activity have been discovered from Goniothala-mus genus,but the related mechanisms lack a systematic summary.In this paper,the antitumor mechanism of Goniothalamus genus since 2007 was reviewed in order to provide reference for the research of its drug resources.
