Naringenin-induced Oral Cancer Cell Apoptosis
Article in Current cancer drug targets, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundOral cancer is a malignant tumor with a high impact and poor prognosis. Naringenin, a flavonoid found in citrus fruits and its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties offer potential therapeutic benefits. However, limited studies have been conducted on the impact of naringenin on human tongue carcinoma CAL-27 cells. This study aims to elucidate the correlation between naringenin and tongue cancer, thereby identifying a potential therapeutic candidate for drug intervention against tongue cancer.
methodsThe effect of naringenin on the apoptosis of CAL-27 cells and its mechanism were studied by cell counting kit-8, mitochondrial membrane potential assay with JC-1, Annexin V-- FITC apoptosis detection, cell cycle, and apoptosis analysis, Reactive Oxygen Species assay and Western blot.
resultsThe results showed that naringenin significantly induced apoptosis in CAL-27 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Mechanistically, naringenin-induced apoptosis was mediated through the upregulation of Bid and downregulation of Bcl-xl, which led to increased generation of ROS.
conclusionThe findings suggested that naringenin may represent a promising candidate for the treatment of oral cancer by inducing apoptotic cell death via modulation of the Bid and Bcl-xl signaling pathways.
