摘要: Background: Alkyl ethers (D2 and D7) synthesized from diospyrin (D1), a naphthoquinonoid isolated Diospyros montana Roxb., were evaluated for cytotoxicity capacity to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) in tumour cells. Methods: The inhibitory activity of the quinonoids was assessed vivo against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC), while determined vitro on EAC MCF-7 cancer cells by MTT assay. ROS generated measured fluorimetrically. Results: activity, generation found be D7 > D2 D1. Conclusion:Alkyl D1 more cytotoxic as well vivo.
