title: Magnolol-induced inhibition of tumor growth in systemic malignancies.
abstract: The commentary illustrates the significant tumor attenuating effects of magnolol and refers to the article on "Screening active anti-breast cancer compounds from Cortex Magnolia officinalis by 2D LC-MS" (X. Hou, et al., J. Sep. Sci. 2013, 36 (4), 706-712). On the basis of the literature, there is definitively need for further studies to fully understand the magnolol reation pathways and to harness the antineoplastic effects.
