Features:

Vitexin - Apigenin-8-C-Glucoside

Alternative Names: Apigenin-8-C-glucoside, apigenin-8-C-β-D-glucopyranoside

Type: Flavone C-glycoside / apigenin derivative

Function: Vitexin is a naturally occurring C-glycosylated flavone in which glucose is attached to apigenin at the C-8 position. It exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, metabolic, cardiovascular, neuroprotective, and antiproliferative activities and can modulate pathways involving NF-κB, Nrf2/HO-1, MAPK, PI3K/AKT, AMPK, HIF-1α, apoptosis, and oxidative stress.

Cancer: Preclinical studies indicate antiproliferative, pro-apoptotic, anti-migratory, anti-invasive, and anti-inflammatory effects across multiple cancer models. Reported mechanisms include modulation of PI3K/AKT, MAPK, NF-κB, HIF-1α, ROS, apoptosis, and cell-cycle signaling. Clinical anticancer efficacy has not been established.

Alzheimer's Disease: Preclinical evidence suggests neuroprotective activity through antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, reduction of neuronal injury, regulation of oxidative stress and mitochondrial function, and modulation of signaling pathways relevant to cognitive impairment and amyloid-associated neurotoxicity. Clinical efficacy for Alzheimer's disease has not been established.



iNOS, Inducible nitric oxide synthase: Click to Expand ⟱
Source: HalifaxProj(block)
Type:
An enzyme that produces nitric oxide (NO) in response to inflammatory stimuli.
iNOS can promote tumor growth by enhancing blood flow and nutrient supply to tumors through vasodilation. It may also help cancer cells evade apoptosis (programmed cell death).
Immune Activation: In some contexts, NO produced by iNOS can enhance the immune response against tumors, promoting the activation of immune cells that can target and destroy cancer cells.
Inhibition of Tumor Growth: High levels of NO can induce cytotoxic effects on tumor cells, leading to reduced proliferation and increased apoptosis.
