title: Inhibitory effects of lantadenes and related triterpenoids on Epstein-Barr virus activation.
abstract: To search for possible antitumor promoters, inhibitory effects of lantadenes and related triterpenoids from Lantana camara L. (Verbenaceae) on Epstein-Barr virus activation, were tested. The substitutions on the carboxylic acid through an ester bond might play an important role in the activity.
