Abstract: | ![]() Potential antitumor activity of sixteen Korean medicinal plants was tested against leukemia SN 36, murine tumor model. Survival studies by measuring life span indicated thatMorus alba (Moraceae), Verbascum phlomoides (Scrophulariaceae), Curcuma longa (Zingiberaceae), Torilis japonica (Umbelliferae), Bupleurum falcatum (Umbelliferae) andCodonopsis pilosula (Campanulaceae) exhibited significant antitumor activity with the dose-schedule employed in the experiment. Methanol(70%) extracts ofPlatycodon grandiftorum (Campanulaceae), Bupleurum longeradiatum (Umbelliferae) andAsiasarum sieboldii (Aristolochiaceae) showed rather potent toxicity. |
