A novel unusual trimmer chalcone, polyanthumin (1), together with five known compounds myricetin 3-O-(3″-O-galloyl)-α-l-rhamnopyranoside (2), sulfuretin (3), fustin (4), gallic acid (5), and ethyl gallate (6), was isolated from the dry stems of Memecylon polyanthum H.L. Li. Among them, compound 1 is a new chalcone trimmer with a novel cyclobutane skeleton in nature. Compounds 3 and 4 are flavonoids carrying a single 7-OH in A ring, which provided the first example of these class flavonoids from…

The Synthesis and Antitumor Activity of Twelve Galloyl Glucosides
TLDR
In in vitro MTT assay, compounds 1–12 inhibited human cancer K562, HL-60 and HeLa cells with inhibition rates ranging from 64.2% to 92.9% at 100 μg/mL, and their IC50 values were determined to be varied in 17.2–124.7 μM on the tested three human cancer cell lines.

Flavonoids as Multi-Target Compounds: A Special Emphasis on their Potential as Chemo-adjuvants in Cancer Therapy.
TLDR
In vitro, flavonoids are shown to reverse multidrug resistance when used as chemo-adjuvants, and interact with several oncogenic targets through dependent and independent mechanisms to mediate their anticancer efficacy in different types of cancer cells.
Natural Products for Treatment of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
TLDR
Several lines of evidence show that many NPs such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, polyketides, lignans and saponins inhibit CML cell proliferation and induce apoptosis and this chapter reviews the anti-CML activity of various NPs.
