Uvaria chamae p. Beauv., synthesizes and accumulates a variety of secondary metabolites from its root,
stem, leaf and fruit. These consist mainly of essential oils, flavonoids, alkaloids
and annonaceous acetogenins. Some of these biologically active secondary
metabolites validate the claim made in traditional system of medicine. The
present review summarizes the information available on the secondary
metabolites isolated from U. chamae and their biological activities.
