Abstract: Disclosed is a natural compound, Oblongifolin C, isolated from a natural plant comprising Garcinia species such as Garcinia yunnanesis Hu, for its effects of anti-migration and anti-invasion against cancer and its use as an anticancer drug. The treated cancers comprise cervical cancers and esophageal cancers. The cancer treatment comprises inhibition of cancer metastasis and inhibition of autophagic flux.

Abstract: Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in males and one of the leading causes of cancer death. Although treatment options have increased for some patients, overall progress has been modest. Thus, there is a great need to develop new treatments. This invention relates to a method for treating cancer comprising using an anti-cancer compound of formula (I): More particularly, it relates to said anti-prostate cancer compound that can be isolated from Garcinia esculenta or chemically synthesized and its specific anticancer/antitumor activity. The invention has a specific application in treating human prostate cancer.

Abstract: Cervical cancer is one of the most common malignancies and is associated with a dismal prognosis. The most common therapeutic option for cervical cancer consists of surgery in early stages, and chemotherapy or radiotherapy in more advanced stages of the disease. Although treatment options have increased for some patients, overall progress has been modest. This invention relates to a method for treating cancer comprising administering an anti-cancer compound. More particularly, the present invention relates to an anti-cervical-cancer compound for treating human cervical cancer and tumor.

Abstract: The present invention provides composition for treating cancer comprising polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol (PPAP) compound. The present invention also provides a composition comprising Guttiferone K for treating esophageal cancer and liver cancer. The present invention further provides a method of using said compound for inhibiting cancer metastasis.

Abstract: This invention is related to compounds isolated from various Garcinia species and method of treating cancer. The present invention provides composition for treating cancer comprising polyprenylated acylphloroglucinol (PPAP) compound. The present invention also provides a composition comprising Guttiferone K for treating esophageal cancer.

Abstract: The present invention provides two compounds, namely Compound A and B, as the potential anticancer drug, and a composition comprising said Compound A and/or B for treating cancer or tumor related diseases. The present invention also relates to methods of preparing the compounds from a natural source and a composition comprising the compounds, and using the same for treating cancer or tumor related diseases.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a synthetic compound and its therapeutic uses.

Abstract: Two novel polyprenylated benzoylphloroglucinol derivatives, garciesculentones A and C, are disclosed in the present invention. Garciesculentones A and C exhibit cytotoxicity and/or antimigration effect against various cancer cell lines. The experimental results of the present invention suggest that Garciesculentones A and C are useful for developing into anticancer drugs.
