Abstract
An observation on the anticancer activity of homopterocarpin and medicarpin in vitro, which was separated from the root of Glycyrrhiza pallidiflora Maxim.. The cell culture test was used in these studies in vitro. The experimental result showed that these two ingredients could inhibite (lower concentration) or kill (higher concntration) human^s liver cancer cells under the cultured condition, moreover, the effect of medicarpin was stronger than that of homopterocarpin. These two monomers were active components of Glycyrrhiza pallidiflora Maxim.
