An attempt has been made to assessin vitro cytotoxicity of an endophytic fungus fromNothapodytes foetida. Various human cancer cell lines (liver HEP-2, lung A-549, ovary OVAR-5, prostate PC-3, cervix Hela, colon HCT-15, oral cell line KB, CNS SNB-78, were used.In vitro cytotoxicity of camptothecin (CPT) isolated from the fungus was done where OVAR-5 cell line showed maximum inhibition and HEP-2 cell line was least sensitive with this compound.In vitro cytotoxicity of fractions/extracts from endophyte was carried out where ethyl acetate fraction showed sufficient growth inhibition against all the cell lines.
