NOVEL DNA POLYMERASE INHIBITORS, MIKANOLIDE AND DIHYDROMIKANOLIDE

摘要

The invention concerns DNA polymerase inhibitors, namely mikanolide and dihydromikanolide and dihydromikanolide-enriched extracts. Said compounds or mixtures can be used for preparing medicines designed to treat proliferative diseases, in particular cancer, viral diseases or parasitic diseases provoked by protozoae (for example malaria ) or protists (for example, diseases caused by amoebae).
