It has been found in recent years that Artesunate (Art), a water soluble derivative of arteannuin, mainly previously used for its anti-malarial activity, has some other effects, e.g. it could act as an anti-tumor agent by way of inducing cell apoptosis, antagonizing angiogenesis, reversing immunosuppression of tumor cells, etc. More and more attention is being paid to the anti-tumor effects of Art. Such progress is reviewed in this paper.
