    Lung cancer has been the most common cancer in the world for several decades, and it was also the most common cause of death from cancer. Despite the several advances in the last few years into treatment of lung cancer, the survival remains extremely low. There is an urgent need to discover viable leads that can be developed into new clinically therapeutic drugs with good treatment effects. The analysis of current reported literatures suggest that natural products possess strong inhibitory efficacy against lung cancer. The plants of Croton genus belonging to Euphorbiaceae family, are widely used as herbal medicine in the folk. Which are reported to have abilities to treat several cancer cell lines especially lung cancer, a successive study was carried out to identify selective anticancer agents from these plants specie. Herein we employed a network pharmacological approach to understand its multi-therapeutics potentiality in Croton genus against lung cancer. In total, the database of the compound was established based on the methods of network pharmacology prediction and the compound-disease target network was constructed. We believed that our study would provide important clues for finding novel drug inhibitors for lung cancer.

    Isatis indigotica Fortune, belonging to Isatis genus of Cruciferae family, is widely used as a common Chinese herbal medicine in folk. As a traditional medicinal agent, a wide spectrum of chemical constituents have been isolated from the leaves, including alkaloids, flavonoids, flavonoid glycosides, organic acids and glycosides. The research shows that the leaves had multiple activities and good development prospect, which has attracted a wide range of attention. Hence, this article is presented as a review concentrating on chemical constituents and pharmacological activities of the leaves of I. indigotica Fort., aiming at supporting practical and useful information for the further research and development of this plant.

    Sarcandra glabra (Thunb.) Nakai., belonging to Chloranthaceae genus of Sarcandra family, is widely used as the common Chinese herbal medicine in folk. As a traditional medicinal agent, a wide spectrum of chemical constituents have been isolated from the S.glabra, including sesquiterpenoids, triperpenoids, flavonoids, coumarins, phenolic acids and volatile oil. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that S.glabra has many biological activities such as anti-cancer, hepatoprotective activity, anti-inflammatory and anti-asthmatic activities. For the further development of this plant, the primary chemical constitutions of S.glabra and their activities have been summarized in this study.
