TLDR
The chemistry of the limonoids was reviewed in this series by Dreyer (84); a more recent review is by Connolly, Overton and Polonsky (73), and taxonomic aspects have been reviewed recently by the present author.Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to review the chemistry of the limonoids isolated from plants of the natural order Meliaceae; limonoids from the Rutaceae and Cneoraceae are not included. The chemistry of the limonoids was last reviewed in this series by Dreyer (84); a more recent review is by Connolly, Overton and Polonsky (73). Taxonomic aspects have been reviewed recently by the present author (199), and chemistry and phyto-chemistry have been discussed at a recent meeting (81). The present article sets out to review advances in limonoid chemistry since the last review in this series (84); the tables however are intended to be comprehensive.read more

TL;DR: The in vitro efficacy on Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus of extracts from Carapa guianensis seed oil, Cymbopogon martinii and Cymboogon schoenanthus leaf essential oil, and Piper tuberculatum leaf crude extract and similar synthesized substances was evaluated.

Limonoids as cancer chemopreventive agents
TL;DR: Limonoids are highly oxidized triterpenes present in Rutaceae and Maliaceae families and potential exists for the use of limonoids against human cancer in either natural fruits, in citrus fortified with Limonoids, or in purified forms of specific limonoid.

TL;DR: Feeding inhibition and mortality produced by some of these extracts were comparable to and, in certain cases, slightly greater than the effects produced by comparable neem seed preparations.

Phytochemical potential of tropical plants
TL;DR: Rodriquez et al. as discussed by the authors used tropical plants as sources of antiprotozoal agents and used them in traditional medicine in Costa Rican tropical forests, where they were used in traditional medicines.
