Natural products serve as abundant resources with diversity of chemical structures, which has been widely explored for the pharmacological researches and drug discovery [1, 2].They are generally isolated from microorganisms,plants, marine organisms, etc., with multifarious pharmacological activities [3].To date, natural products and their derivatives have been extensively used for the treatment of various diseases, such as malarial, immune-related diseases and cancer [4-7].According to a statistical data from 1946 to September 2019, there are 13.5% and 25.1% of approved anti-cancer drugs originating from natural products and natural product derivatives, respectively [1], indicating the essential role of natural products in anti-cancer drug development.
