“…The antioxidant, antiinflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral activities of xanthones are described [5]. The antineoplastic activity of a-mangostin (a-M; 1,3,6-trihydroxy-7-methoxy-2,8-diprenyl-9H-xanthen-9-one), the most representative xanthone in mangosteen pericarp (78% content), has been established on human hepatoma [6], breast cancer [7] and pancreatic cancer [8]. In particular a-M was reported to have antitumor effects on human melanoma tumor cells previously [9]; however, the details of the mechanism remain unclear.…”

The antineoplastic activity of a-mangostin (a-M; 1,3,6-trihydroxy-7-methoxy-2,8-diprenyl-9H-xanthen-9-one), the most representative xanthone in mangosteen pericarp (78% content), has been established on human hepatoma [6], breast cancer [7] and pancreatic cancer [8].

“…Undoubtedly, impaired ERα expression can contribute to enhancements of intrinsic/ extrinsic apoptotic signaling by widely modulating the expression of multiple apoptosis-related proteins. [31][32][33][34] However, the decrease in ERα expression caused by NDV-D90 was accompanied by increases in GPER protein expression. The GPER has been confirmed to be a tumor suppressor in ER-positive BCs.…”

“…Furthermore, a study revealed that the presence of ERα is necessary for growth inhibition and apoptosis induced by α-mangostin in human breast cancer cells, as evidenced by that MDA-MB-231 cells (ER-α negative) is less sensitive to α-mangostin than MCF-7 cells (ERα positive), and that knockdown of ERα reduced the cell growth inhibition and caspase-7 activation induced by α-mangostin [ 109 ]. Besides, lymph node metastasis partly contributes to the lethality of breast cancer.…”
