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.



Bax:Bcl2, Bax:Bcl2 ratio: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
Bax and Bcl-2 are the major members of Bcl-2 family that play a key role in tumor progression or inhibition of intrinsic apoptotic pathway triggered by mitochondrial dysfunction.
Bax/Bcl-2 ratio is typically significantly lower in tumors.
