Source:
Type:
AEG-1 (Astrocyte Elevated Gene-1), also known as Metadherin (MTDH) or LYRIC, is an oncogene that has garnered considerable attention due to its multifaceted roles in tumor progression, metastasis, and chemoresistance.
AEG-1 is involved in several cellular processes including proliferation, migration, invasion, angiogenesis, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT).
It influences multiple signaling pathways such as PI3K/AKT, NF-κB, and Wnt/β-catenin, which are critical for promoting survival, proliferation, and metastatic potential.
AEG-1’s ability to interact with various proteins and pathways makes it a central hub in fostering a supportive environment for tumor growth and progression.

AEG-1 is overexpressed in a wide range of cancers including breast, prostate, liver (hepatocellular carcinoma), glioblastoma, melanoma, and colorectal cancers, among others.
High expression levels are frequently detected in advanced tumor stages and often correlate with aggressive tumor phenotypes.

*toxicity↓, The safety profile of Luteolin has been proven by its non-toxic side effects, as the oral median lethal dose (LD50) was found to be higher than 2500 and 5000 mg/kg in mice and rats, respectively, equal to approximately 219.8−793.7 mg/kg in humans
*BioAv↓, One major problem related to the use of flavonoids for therapeutic purposes is their low bioavailability.

COX2↓,
NRF2↑, Luteolin has been identified to increase the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), which is a crucial transcription factor with anticarcinogenic properties related
Ca+2↑, caused loss of the mitochondrial membrane action potential, enhanced levels of mitochondrial calcium (Ca2+),
ChemoSen↑, Luteolin enhanced the effect of one of the most effective chemotherapy drugs, cisplatin, on CRC cells
ChemoSen↓, high dose of Luteolin application negatively affected the oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy in a p53-dependent manner [52]. They suggested that the flavonoids with Nrf2-activating ability might interfere with the chemotherapeutic efficacy of anticancer
IFN-γ↓, decreased the expression of interferon-gamma-(IFN-γ)
RadioS↑, suggested that Luteolin can act as a radiosensitizer, promoting apoptosis by inducing p38/ROS/caspase cascade
MDM2↓, Luteolin treatment was associated with increased p53 and p21 and decreased MDM4 expressions both in vitro and in vivo.
NOTCH1↓, Luteolin suppressed the growth of lung cancer cells, metastasis, and Notch-1 signaling pathway
AR↓, downregulating the androgen receptor (AR) expression
TIMP1↑, Luteolin inhibits the migration of U251MG and U87MG human glioblastoma cell lines by downregulating MMP-2 and MMP-9 and upregulating the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1 and TIMP-2.
