Description

Apigenin is a flavonoid found in plants and vegetables. It has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects, and may also be beneficial for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Apigenin has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of virus-infected cells by preventing viral gene expression and protein synthesis, as well as by inducing apoptosis. Apigenin also inhibits collagen gel contraction, which is an important factor in skin cancer development. Apigenin also shows potential for treating prostate cancer cells by inhibiting their growth. The chemical structures of apigenin are similar to those of other flavonoids, with hydroxyl groups on the B ring and an aromatic A ring that contains two benzene rings fused together with a single bond between them. The IUPAC name for apigenin is 3′,4′,5,7-tetrahydroxyflavone.
