DMU-212, a methylated form of Resveratrol, shows antimitotic, antiproliferative, and antioxidant activities. DMU-212 induces mitotic arrest through the activation of ERK1/2 protein and the promotion of apoptosis.

(R)-Isomucronulatol (2H-1-Benzopyran-7-ol), a flavonoid that can be extracted from the leaves of Astragalus membranaceus, Sophora japonica, Sclerotium tigrinum, and Glycyrrhiza glabra, inhibits the proliferation and apoptosis of BMSCs in the TNF-α microenvironment.

(-)-Epipodophyllotoxin (2) is an antiproliferative agent against cancer cells with GI50s of 0.36 and 0.24 μM in HeLa cells and MCF-7 cells, respectively. (-)-Epipodophyllotoxin can inhibit mitotic spindle assembly in vitro.
