The bioassay-guided isolation of growth inhibitors of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL), from the Jamaican plant Hyptis verticillata, and NMR characterization of hyptoside.

Through bioassay-guided isolation, five compounds with growth inhibitory activity on S1T, an adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) cell line, were isolated from the crude methanol extract of the aerial parts of Hyptis verticillata.
