Core Tip Hepatocellular carcinoma is a common and deadly liver cancer. This review focuses on active compounds from traditional Chinese herbs, organized by chemical structure. These natural compounds can suppress tumors in multiple ways simultaneously: They induce tumor cell death, block proliferation and metastasis, and modulate the immune microenvironment. By linking chemical structure to biological activity, this review provides a useful guide for developing these compounds into new liver cancer drugs, with an emphasis on recent advances in overcoming translational barriers such as poor bioavailability and lack of clinical evidence.
