Journal ArticleDOI
Novel semisynthetic derivatives of betulin and betulinic acid with cytotoxic activity.
TL;DR: A series of new imidazole carboxylic esters (carbamates) and N-acylimidazoles derivatives of betulin and betulinic acid (14-29) have been synthesized and the vast majority has shown a better cytotoxicity profile than betulinIC acid, including the betulin derivatives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Ursane-type pentacyclic triterpenoids as useful platforms to discover anticancer drugs
TL;DR: This review highlights the potential of natural and semisynthetic ursane-type triterpenoids as candidates for the design of multi-target bioactive compounds, with focus on their anticancer effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oleanane-, ursane-, and quinone methide friedelane-type triterpenoid derivatives: Recent advances in cancer treatment
Jorge A. R. Salvador,Ana S. Leal,Ana S. C. Valdeira,Bruno M. F. Gonçalves,Daniela P.S. Alho,Sandra A.C. Figueiredo,Samuel Silvestre,Vanessa I.S. Mendes +7 more
TL;DR: A number of semisynthetic derivatives of oleanane-, ursane- and quinone methide friedelane-type PTs with anticancer activity have been synthetized aiming to improve their therapeutic activity and pharmacokinetic properties, and decrease their toxicity.
