Abstract

We carried out primary screening of 13 carbazole alkaloids isolated from the plant species Murraya euchrestifolia (Rutaceae) on cell growth inhibition of the human leukemia cell line HL-60. Among them, murrayafoline-A (1) and murrayazolinine (7) exhibited significant growth suppression due to apoptosis mediated by the activation of the caspase-9/caspase-3 pathway.
