Beschreibung

Allgemeine Beschreibung

Flavonoids belong to polyphenolic class of compounds. They play crucial role in biological activities which include tumor growth inhibition and chemoprevention. Apigenin is a plant flavonoid mostly used to inhibit ornithine decarboxylase activity and skin tumor.

Apigenin can be found in a wide range of medicinal plants such as Achillea sp., Chamomilla sp., Equisetum sp., Mentha sp., Salix sp., Salvia sp., Silybum sp., Thymus sp., Verbascum sp.

Anwendung

It may be used as internal standard for determining peurarin and its metabolites, using LC-ESI-MS/MS, in blood and urine of rats.

Biochem./physiol. Wirkung

A plant flavonoid that has been found to inhibit cell proliferation by arresting the cell cycle at the G₂/M phase. Inhibition of growth through cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis appear to be related to induction of p53. Inhibits PMA-mediated tumor promotion by inhibiting protein kinase C and the resulting suppression of oncogene expression. It has also been reported to inhibit topoisomerase I-catalyzed DNA re-ligation and enhance gap junctional intercellular communication.

Verpackung
