lapachol and Neoplasm Metastasis

lapachol has been researched along with Neoplasm Metastasis in 2 studies

lapachol : A hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone that is 1,4-naphthoquinone substituted by hydroxy and 3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl groups at positions 2 and 3, respectively. It is a natural compound that exhibits antibacterial and anticancer properties, first isolated in 1882 from the bark of Tabebuia avellanedae.

Neoplasm Metastasis: The transfer of a neoplasm from one organ or part of the body to another remote from the primary site.
