Application

  • Chrysin has been used to study the effect of bioflavonoids on the inhibition of ATP synthase in Escherichia coli.[1]
  • It has been used to study the effect of Chrysin on eIF4E (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E) expression in AGS cell (human gastric carcinoma cell) line.[2]
  • It has been used to study the effect of chrysin on human ovarian cancer cells.[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Chrysin is a flavonoid and an analog of apigenin. It inhibits aromatase and also suppresses human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) activation in models with latent infection. Chrysin exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects. This molecule induces apoptosis in various cells, thereby exhibiting cancer chemopreventive activity.[4] Chrysin can modulate the activity of GABAA (Type-A γ-aminobutyric acid) and GABAC receptors, it downregulates expression of PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen), reduces activity of CDK2 (cyclin-dependent kinase 2) and CDK4 and induces p38-MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) activation.[5]

In searching for potent cancer chemopreventive agents from synthetic or natural products, 28 randomly selected flavonoids were screened for inhibitory effects against partially purified aromatase prepared from human placenta. Over 50% of the flavonoids significantly inhibited aromatase activity, with greatest
