## Abstract **Scope:** Previously, we reported that 5‐hydroxy‐3,6,7,8,3′,4′‐hexamethoxyflavone (5HHMF), a polymethoxyflavone found in citrus peels, potently inhibited the growth of multiple human colon cancer cells. Herein, we further investigated the anti‐cancer mechanisms of 5HHMF in human colon

✦ Synopsis
3'-methyl-3-hydroxy-chalcone (3'Me-34). a derivative of chalcone, inhibited the proliferation of various kinds of human malignant tumor cells, such as HGC-27 (gastric cancer), HeLa (cervical carcinoma), PANC-I (pancreatic cancer) and GOTO (neuroblastoma). Flow-cytometric analysis of HGC-27 cells revealed that 3'Me-3-C perturbed the cell cycle, i.e., it delayed passage through the S phase, and/or caused arrest in the Go/GI phase. 3'Me-3-C inhibited the binding of [6,7-3H]estradiol to type4 estrogen-binding sites dose-dependently, and altered the pattern of protein synthesis and phosphorylation, which may explain 3'Me-3-C-induced inhibition of cell proliferation. In addition, 3'Me-3-C also suppressed the promoting activity of 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate on skin carcinogenesis in 7, I2-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene-initiated mice.
