Abstract
In this paper we are reviewing the potent anticancer activity of xanthohumol (XN) molecule and its analogues. The anticancer activity is explained according to the mechanisms of action of the molecule on tumour cells. We also comparing the isolation techniques and the synthetic routes that have been developed as far as now, indicating the most reasonable way of taking this molecule for preliminary studies. Finally, we are giving our opinion of future research that it is preferable to been followed based on these findings.
