“…In China, the seeds of C. tiglium are well known as “Ba-Dou”, a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that is widely used as an herb for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, and is purgative and antidermatophytic ( Tsai et al, 2004 ; Wang et al, 2008 ; Lin et al, 2016 ). The essential oil extracted from the seeds of C. tiglium shows anti-tumor activity ( Niu et al, 2020 ). Previous secondary metabolite investigations of this genus revealed that diterpenoids were the main ingredients ( Xu et al, 2018 ), including clerodane ( Fattorusso et al, 2002 ), tigliane ( Cui et al, 2019 ), kaurane ( Kuo et al, 2013 ), labdane ( Yang et al, 2016 ), and pimarane ( Isyaka et al, 2020 ), which have a wide range of biological activities, such as cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial ( Morales et al, 2005 ; Kuo et al, 2007 ; Leite et al, 2017 ).…”
