| Bioactivity | Acacetin (5,7-Dihydroxy-4'-methoxyflavone) is an orally active flavonoid derived from Dendranthema morifolium. Acacetin docks in the ATP binding pocket of PI3Kγ. Acacetin causes cell cycle arrest and induces apoptosis and autophagy in cancer cells. Acacetin has potent anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory activity and has the potential for pain-related diseases research[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | Acacetin (5,7-Dihydroxy-4'-methoxyflavone; 10-200 μM; 24 hours) decreases cell viabilities in a dose-dependent manner. Acacetin has little effect on human normal glial cell line HEB and non-tumorigenic epithelial cell line MCF-10A[1]. Acacetin (50-150 μM; 24 hours) causes G2/M cell cycle arrest and induces apoptosis and autophagy[1]. Acacetin (50-150 μM; 24 hours) leads to decreases in levels of PI3Kγ-p110, p-AKT, p-mTOR, p-p70S6K, and p-ULK in a dose-dependent manner[1]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: | ||||||||||||
