Anti-proliferative activity of triterpenes isolated from Clinicanthus nutans on Hep-G2 liver cancer cells

Problem statement: Clinicanthus nutans has been used by Malaysian since long time ago. It is used to treat many diseases including cancer. Many studies carried out on its crude extract but no clear report on the specific secondary metabolites responsible for its nature in treating selected diseases....
