Abstract

Natural products are gaining more attention for their pharmaceutical activities. These activities include anti-angiogenic, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, etc. Studies have shown that natural products can enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy. In some cases, natural products can also alleviate some of the side effects of chemotherapeutic agents. In this chapter, anticancer activities of various natural products (e.g., camptothecin, curcumin, myricetin, geraniin, tocotrienols, vinblastine, vincristine, etc.) will be discussed. The mode of action of these natural products (epigenetic modification, modulation of oxidative stress, etc.) will also be highlighted.
