thumb|New Zealand scientist Sir Thomas Hill Easterfield was the first person to discover totarol. Photo 1920. thumb|Totarol powder Totarol is a naturally produced diterpene that is bioactive. It was first isolated by McDowell and Easterfield from the heartwood of Podocarpus totara, an endemic conifer species found in New Zealand. Podocarpus totara was investigated for unique molecules due to the tree's increased resistance to rotting. Recent studies have confirmed totarol's unique antimicrobial and therapeutic properties. Consequently, totarol is a candidate for a new source of drugs and has b

Three nutlins were discovered in the initial small molecule screen (nutlin-1, nutlin-2, and nutlin-3), but nutlin-3 is most commonly used in anti-cancer studies. Nutlins disrupt the p53–MDM2 interaction by occupying a p53-binding pocket of MDM2. Many tumors that express normal p53 and normal or elevated levels of MDM2 may be targeted using nutlin. Nutlin-3 acts quickly in vitro, leading to increased level
