Mangiferin triggered G2/M phase cell-cycle arrest via down-regulating cdc2-cyclinB1 singling pathway and induced apoptotic cell death through inhibiting PKC-NFκB pathway in human breast carcinoma MCF-7 cells. In addition, mangiferin had anti-cancer effects in vivo and it could decrease the volume and weight of subcutaneous tumor mass obviously as well as expanded lifespan of xenograft mice. With the molecular mechanisms of mangiferin-induced anti-tumor activities were gradually clarified, traditional Chinese medicine would become potential anti-neoplastic drugs in future cancer therapeutics.} }
