Description

Apigenin is a flavonoid that has been shown to have a number of biological properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer activities. Apigenin inhibits the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and induces apoptosis in cancer cells. Apigenin also acts as an inhibitor of the angiogenic pathway by binding to DNA and inhibiting transcriptional activity. In vitro assays have shown apigenin's ability to inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis in human cancer tissues. Apigenin has also been found to reduce atherosclerotic lesion size in mice. This compound is a natural product derived from curcuma aromatica (turmeric) and other plants such as parsley, chamomile, or peppermint. Curcuminoids are found in turmeric and other plants such as parsley, chamomile, or peppermint. These compounds are responsible for the yellow color of these plants.
