The program has investigated 16 plants of the genus Schisandra and Kadsura. About 100 novel highly oxygenated rearranged triterpenoids and nortriterpenoids with new skeleton were discovered. Among them, several ones have been found to show significant anti-HIV bioactivity with minimal toxicity. This result has attracted much attention in the world. The researchers will continue to isolate ...
This program carried out systematic studies on chemical components and biological activity of some higher fungi in Yunnan.
