Kaempferol | 100 μM | 6, 2, 3, 4 | 10, 18, 19 | 0.38 × 10−6 | 1.57 × 10−6 |

The MAG translocation reporter cell line was treated with 200 μM dexrazoxane for 5 h before 1 h treatment with etoposide (50 μM), genistein (75 μM), kaempferol (100 μM) or myricetin (50 μM). Number of GFP+ colonies were counted after 5–7 days. Experiment was repeated in triplicate and compared to our previous reported data without dexrazoxane pre-treatment. The translocation frequency decreased with dexrazoxane pre-treatment for etoposide (p= 0.0006), increased for kaempferol (p= 0.0058) and remained statistically unchanged for untreated, genistein, and myricetin (p= 0.272, 0.363, and 0.101, respectively).
