Berberine represents an interesting and
attractive natural lead compound
Chemical modifications might select more
specific medical indications resulting in
derivatives with better (or different)
biological effects compared to the parent
berberine
Performing rational chemical modifications of
berberine structure led to a new class of
derivatives with antitumour properties
