This project targeted the species Peritassa campestris (Celastraceae), a plant native to the hotspot biome Cerrado. This species can biosynthesize quinonemetide triterpenes, which display potent antitumor activity and constitute the chemotaxonomic markers of the family Celastraceae. These triterpenes have attracted researchers' interest due to their countless pharmacological properties. H…
Quinonemethide triterpenes (QMTs) are a select group of secondary metabolites that are exclusively biosynthesized by plants of the Celastraceae family. QMTs display a wide range of biological activities, especially antitumor action. Because they can act on several cancer cell lines by multiple mechanisms and reach a multitude of oncogenic targets, they have been labeled "multifunctional d…
