Oroxylin A has anticancer,.anti-inflammation, antithrombotic,antibacterial, anti-pruritic effects, it can inhibit LPS-induced iNOS and COX-2 gene expression by blocking NF-κB activation. Oroxylin A reverses MDR by G2/M arrest and the underlying mechanism attributed to the suppression of P-gp expression via Chk2/P53/NF-κB signaling pathway. Oroxylin A facilitates memory consolidation through brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)-TrkB signaling.

Palmatine , a protoberberine alkaloid, is present in preparations from medicinal plants such as Coptis chinensis and Corydalis yanhusuo, palmatine activates the AhR-CYP1A pathway in HepG2 monolayer, while the potential for CYP1A induction is irrelevant in cell systems which are closer to the in vivo situation, i.e. in HepG2 spheroids and primary cultures of human hepatocytes.

Alpinetin is a type of novel plant flavonoid derived from Alpinia katsumadai Hayata, possesses strong anti-hepatoma effects, can suppress HepG2 cell proliferation and arrested cells in the G0/G1 phase by up-regulating the expression levels of p-MKK7, and the antitumor effect of Alpinetin could be reversed by inhibiting the expression of MKK7; suggests that MKK7 may be a putative target for molecular therapy against hepatoma and Alpinetin could serve as a potential agent for the development of hepatoma therapy.

Vaccarin exhibits extensive biological activities including vascular endothelial cell protective effects, it can significantly promote neovascularization by enhancing protein expression of p-Akt , p‑Erk, and CD31, and selectively protect vascular endothelium from dysfunction induced by H2O2.

Beta-eudesmol, a sesquiterpenoid alcohol isolated from Atractylodes lancea rhizome, can inhibit angiogenesis, at least in part, through the blockade of the ERK signaling pathway, suggests that it may aid the development of drugs to treat angiogenic diseases.
