Catharanthus roseus produces low levels of two dimeric terpenoid indole alkaloids, vinblastine and vincristine, which are widely used in cancer chemotherapy. The dimerization reaction leading to alpha-3',4'-anhydrovinblastine is a key regulatory step for the production of the anticancer alkaloids in

BACKGROUND Throughout the history of human civilizations, cancer has been a major health problem. Despite the advancements made by modern medical sciences, complete treatment or removal of cancerous cells is still a challenging task. Vinblastine, an alkaloid obtained from Catharanthus roseus (L.) G.

16-Epi-Z-isositsirikine (1) has been isolated from the leaves of Catharanthus roseus and Rhazya stricta and identified through a combination of spectral interpretation and chemical correlation. The compound displayed antineoplastic activity in the KB test system in vitro and the P-388 test system in

A vacuolar class III peroxidase and the metabolism of anticancer indole alkaloids in Catharanthus roseus: Can peroxidases, secondary metabolites and arabinogalactan proteins be partners in microcompartmentation of cellular reactions?

Some Vinca alkaloids (eg, vinblastine, vincristine) have been widely used as antitumor drugs for a long time. Unfortunately, vindoline, a main alkaloid component of Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don, itself, has no antitumor activity. In our novel research program, we have prepared and identified new
