The Claim

8-Prenylnaringenin demonstrates the strongest mitotic activity on MCF-7 breast cancer cells compared to 6-DMAN and naringenin in cell culture experiments.

Source: Assessment of the proliferative capacity of the flavanones 8-prenylnaringenin, 6-(1.1-dimethylallyl)naringenin and naringenin in MCF-7 cells and the rat mammary gland.

What the research says

1 study
  1. Study: Assessment of the proliferative capacity of the flavanones 8-prenylnaringenin, 6-(1.1-dimethylallyl)naringenin and naringenin in MCF-7 cells and the rat mammary gland.

    The study tested exactly what the claim says - whether 8-Prenylnaringenin makes breast cancer cells divide more than the other two compounds. The researchers found that 8-Prenylnaringenin indeed had the strongest cell-dividing effect on MCF-7 breast cancer cells, confirming the claim.
