4,5-Seco-5,10-friedo-abietane-type diterpenoids with anticancer activity fromSalvia atropatanaBunge

Abolfazl Shakeri et al.

Summary: This study isolated the petroleum ether fraction from the roots of Salvia atropatana for the first time, showing growth inhibition and apoptosis induction in MCF-7 and PC3 cells. The most cytotoxic compound, a new abietane-type diterpenoid named atropatanene, exhibited significant cytotoxicity against PC3 cells. Bioassay-guided isolation methods were used to identify compounds with high cytotoxicity.
