This paper has shown the cytocidal effects of alcohol extracts of roots and rhizomes of Sinopodophyllum emodi (Wall.) Ying on human erythroleukemia K562 cells, leukemia L1210 cells, leukemia L7712 cells in vitro, using microculture method for 24 hours. The survival rates on K562 cells in the final

The antitumor activities of several glucuronide methyl esters of podophyllum derivatives were tested in vitro against two human tumor cell lines and their drug resistant sublines. The most active compound studied was methyl (4'-carbobenzoxy-4'-demethyl-epipodophyllotoxin-D-glucopyranoside)uronat e
