Bioactivity | Apigenin (4',5,7-Trihydroxyflavone) is a competitive CYP2C9 inhibitor with a Ki of 2 μM. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | Apigenin (4',5,7-Trihydroxyflavone) inhibits cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) with a Ki of 2 μM in the CYP2C9 RECO system (a purified, reconstituted enzyme system containing recombinant human CYP2C9, P450 reductase, cytochrome b5, and liposomes)[1]. Apigenin inhibits the cell proliferation. The growth inhibition rate (IR) of 20, 40, and 80 μM of Apigenin is 38%, 71%, and 99% respectively on the 7thd. after exposure to Apigenin for 24 or 48 h, the clone formation of SGC-7901 cells is suppressed in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The cloning efficiency in 80 μM is 9.8% and 5% after treatment with Apigenin for 24 and 48 h, while in the control group it is 40.4% and 43.4%[2]. | ||||||||||||
