Pterocarpans from Harpalyce brasiliana: Bioassay Insights by Rajan Panda is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document describes a study that isolated and tested pterocarpan compounds from the roots of Harpalyce brasiliana for their anticancer activity. Researchers performed a bioassay-guided fractionation of the plant extract, identifying six bioactive pterocarpan derivatives. These compounds were tested in a sea urchin egg development assay and for cytotoxicity against tumor cell lines. Leiocarpin showed the strongest anticancer activity in both assays, followed by 4
