Abstract
7-Oxo, 7α-hydroxy- and 7β-hydroxysterols (campesterol, stigmasterol and sitosterol derivatives) were isolated from the roots of Euphorbia fischeriana, a drug used for its antitumour properties in traditional Chinese medicine. Some of these steroids show antitumour activity and might be related to the presumed activity of the drug.
