| Bioactivity | Paeoniflorigenone, isolated as an active ingredient from the root of moutan cortex, induces apoptosis selectively in the cancer cell lines and exhibits antiproliferative effect[1]. |
| Invitro | Paeoniflorigenone (0-30 μM; 0-72 hours) significantly decreases the cell proliferation of tumor cell lines and inhibits the proliferation of normal cell lines[1].Paeoniflorigenone (0-30 μM; 24-72 hours) significantly induces apoptotic DNA fragmentation selectively in tumor cells[1].
