What is Camptothecin? Camptothecin is extracted from the bark and branches of the happy tree (Camptotheca, tree of happiness), which is abundant in China. In the early years, it was a traditional Chinese medical treatment for cancer. Camptothecin (CPT) is a plant-derived anticancer drug with a chemical formula of C20H16N2O4. It is a light yellow needle-like crystal and belongs to the class of cytotoxic quinoline alkaloids, capable of inhibiting DNA topoisomerase I (TOPO I). Natural Extracts of Camptothecin have good therapeutic effects on gastrointestinal and head and neck cancers, but it may cause hematuria in a small number of patients. The anticancer activity of 10-hydroxy camptothecin, as a Health food ingredient, surpasses that of camptothecin, and it also demonstrates significant therapeutic effects on liver and head and neck cancers with fewer side effects. Additionally, Nutritional Supplements containing Camptothecin may provide alternative therapeutic benefits for specific cancer treatments.
