TL;DR: The overall results of the present study provide supportive data on the use of some Cameroonian plants for cancer treatment and indicate that the anti-angiogenic properties of the most active extracts were able to inhibit angiogenesis by more than 50% in quail embryo.

TL;DR: These results confirm the traditional claims and provide promising baseline information for the potential use of the tested vegetables in the fight against bacterial infections involving multi-drug resistant (MDR) strains.

TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that the tested plant extracts and mostly those from P. nitida, G. lucida and G. kola could be used alone or in association with common antibiotics in the fight of bacterial infections involving MDR strains.

TL;DR: The overall results obtained provide the baseline information for the use of the tested plants in the treatment of bacterial infections, and E. robusta extract showed good synergistic effects, improving the activity of commonly used antibiotics in about 85% of cases.

TL;DR: A bis-isoflavone derivative, named amphiis-of-lavone (1), was isolated from the roots of Amphimas pterocarpoides, together with three known isoflavones, namely 8-methoxyiso-formononetin (2), 6-methylisoformonetin (3), and isoformoneto-labelin (4). Chemical transformations carried out on compound 3 led to two new derivatives, 4´-acetoxy-6,7-dimethylisoflone (3a
