Unique Grape Skin Extract Inhibits Prostate Cancer Cell Growth in the Laboratory – August 31, 2007

Laboratory experiments show that an extract of the skin of muscadine

Investigators from the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of
the National Institutes of Health, and their research partners
also show that muscadine grape skin extract (MSKE) does not contain
significant amounts of resveratrol, another grape skin component
that has been widely studied and shown to be of potential benefit
in preventing prostate cancer growth. The results appear in the
