 The ancient practice of using pherola species resins to treat cancer has been shown to be effective in modern times. In particular, the root extracts of pherola hubramorathii have demonstrated cytotoxicity against several types of cancer cells. Furthermore, 15 sesquidipine coumarin ethers have been identified in this extract, including conferal, 2, mogaltadone, 5, and samercandone, 14, which are particularly potent against cancer cells. These compounds appear to work by targeting specific proteins involved in apoptosis, such as BCLXL and Percaspase-3, which could explain their selective cytotoxicity towards cancer cells.
