Abstract

The methanolic extract of the roots of Polygonum multiflorum (Polygonaceae) was found to show inhibitory activity towards farnesyl protein transferase (FPTase). Bioassay-guided fractionation of the methanolic extract resulted in the isolation of two anthraquinone glycosides, as inhibitors of FPTase. These compounds inhibited the FPTase activity in a dose-dependent manner.
