Research in progress on natural polycyclic polyprenylated acylphoroglucinols / 中草药

ABSTRACT

As major active components of the plant of Guttiferae family, polycyclic polyprenylated acylphoroglucinols (PPAPs) have become a hot topic in natural product studies for their novel structures and varied bioactivities such as antibacterial, antiviral, antitumor, and antidepressant activities. In this paper, the chemical structures and bioactivities of 226 natural PPAPs have been summarized. It may provide the reference for the further studies of PPAPs.
