Abstract:This study aims at characterization of the anti-cancer active compounds separated from stems and branches of Sambucus williamsii var. coreana Nakai (Caprifoliaceae). Bioactivity-guided fractionation of ethanol extracts from the S. williamsii was isolated of three triterpenoid compounds. S. williamsii fractions showed superior growth inhibitory activity against three cancer cells (HCT116, A549 and MDA-MB231). Active fraction was isolated and analyzed and led to the identification of three active triterpenoid co… Show more
