Abstract
Sanguinarine is a best-known member of a relatively small group of quaternary benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids (QBAs). QBAs are widely distributed in the family Papaveraceae and, to a limited extent, in some species of the families Fumariaceae and Rutaceae. From a medical perspective, QBAs have many important properties. In addition to antitumour activity, they display antimicrobial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory effects. They may interact with many targets, such as DNA and microtubules, and they modify the activities of a wide variety of enzymes. This review summarises the current state of knowledge about the properties of QBAs that are important for their potential use in anticancer therapy.
