Type:
CYP19, also known as aromatase, is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of estrogens by converting androgens (such as testosterone and androstenedione) into estrogens (such as estradiol and estrone). The activity of CYP19 is significant in various tissues, including the ovaries, testes, adipose tissue, and the brain.

-Estrogen Production: Elevated levels of estrogens, which can result from increased CYP19 activity, are associated with the development and progression of certain cancers, particularly estrogen receptor--positive breast cancer.
-Aromatase Inhibitors: In the treatment of hormone-sensitive breast cancer, aromatase inhibitors (such as anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane) are commonly used. These drugs work by inhibiting the activity of CYP19, thereby reducing estrogen levels and slowing the growth of estrogen-dependent tumors.

2783- CHr,    Apoptotic Effects of Chrysin in Human Cancer Cell Lines
- Review, Var, NA
TumCP↓, chrysin has shown to inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis, and is more potent than other tested flavonoids in leukemia cells
Apoptosis↑,
Casp↑, chrysin is likely to act via activation of caspases and inactivation of Akt signaling in the cells.
PCNA↓, inhibited the growth of cervical cancer cells, HeLa, via apoptosis induction and down-regulated the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in the cells.
p38↑, chrysin potentially induced p38, therefore activated NFkappaB/p65 in the HeLa cells
NF-kB↑,
DNAdam↑, only apigenin, chrysin, quercetin, galangin, luteolin and fisetin were found to clearly induce the oligonucleosomal DNA fragmentation at 50 μM after 6 h of treatment
XIAP↓, down-regulation of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) in the U937 cells
Cyt‑c↑, (1) chrysin mediated the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria into the cytoplasm;
Casp3↑, (2) chrysin induced elevated caspase-3 activity and proteolytic cleavage of its downstream targets, such as phospholipase C-gamma-1 (PLC-gamma1), which is correlated with down-regulation of XIAP;
Akt↓, (3) chrysin decreased phosphorylated Akt levels in cells where the PI3K pathway plays a role in regulating the mechanism.
SCF↓, Chrysin has also been reported to have the ability to abolish the stem cell factor (SCF)/c-Kit signaling by inhibiting the PI3K pathway
hTERT/TERT↓, A significant decrease in human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) expression levels was also observed in leukemia cells treated with 60 ng/mL Manisa propolis, owing to its constituent of chrysin
COX2↓, Chrysin also inhibited the lipopolysaccharide-induced COX-2 expression via inhibition of nuclear factor IL-6 (NF-IL6)
*Inflam↓, anti-inflammatory [21] and anti-oxidant effects [22], and has shown cancer chemopreventive activity via induction of apoptosis in diverse range of human and rat cell types.
*antiOx↑,
*chemoPv↑,
AR-V7?,
CYP19?, Chrysin has recently shown to be a potent inhibitor of aromatase [18] and of human immunodeficiency virus activation in models of latent infection
