Abstract
The use of current anticancer drugs is hampered by significant side effects and high costs. In the pursuit of safer, more effective, and affordable options, researchers have turned to nature as a valuable source of potential anticancer compounds. Quassinoids, a class of natural terpenoids, have garnered attention for their anticancer properties. This comprehensive review aims to shed light on natural quassinoids and their anticancer effects, offering valuable insights for researchers dedicated to the development of novel anticancer therapeutics.
Keywords: Quassinoids, Simaroubaceae, cancer, cytotoxic, mechanism, signalling pathways.
