Abstract

From the crude drug Chorei, the fruit body of Polyporus umbellatus, seven new components named polyporusterone A, B, C, D, E, F and G, were isolated and their structures were determined on the basis of the spectral data. These compounds showed cytotoxic action on leukemia 1210 cell proliferation.
