Epidemiological studies provided evidence that the high dietary intake of flavonoids with fruits and vegetables could be associated with lower cancer prevalence in humans. Didymin, a dietary flavonoid glycoside from citrus fruits, possesses antioxidant properties. This study first investigates the
Neuroblastoma, a rapidly growing yet treatment responsive cancer, is the third most common cancer of children and the most common solid tumor in infants. Unfortunately, neuroblastoma that has lost p53 function often has a highly treatment-resistant phenotype leading to tragic outcomes. In the
Didymin is a dietary flavonoid that first found in citrus fruits, and possesses antioxidant properties. Our preliminary experiments first discovered that didymin was able to sensitize the resistant cancer cells against chemotherapeutics and combat multidrug resistance. However, its poor aqueous
Although didymin, a dietary flavonoid glycoside from citrus fruits, known to be a potent antioxidant with anti-cancer activities, its role in angiogenesis is not known. In this study, we examined the effect of didymin on VEGF-induced angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo models. Our results suggest that
Neuroblastomas arise from the neural crest cells and represent the most common solid tumors outside the nervous system in children. The amplification of N-Myc plays a primary role in the pathogenesis of neuroblastomas, whereas acquired mutations of p53 lead to refractory and relapsed cases of
BACKGROUND
Didymin has been reported to have anti-cancer potential. However, the effect of didymin on liver fibrosis remains illdefined.
METHODS
Hepatic fibrosis was induced by CCl4 in rats. The effects of didymin on liver pathology and collagen accumulation were observed by hematoxylin-eosin and
Didymin (isosakuranetin 7-O-rutinoside) is an orally bioactive dietary flavonoid glycoside first found in citrus fruits. Traditionally, this flavonoid has long been used in Asian countries as a dietary antioxidant. Recent studies have provided newer insights into this pleiotropic compound, which
Although didymin, a flavonoid-O-glycosides compound naturally found in the citrus fruits, has been reported to be a potent anticancer agent in the prevention of various cancers, its role in the prevention of cardiovascular complications is unclear. Most importantly, its effect in the prevention of
Flavonoids are important polyphenolic secondary metabolites in plant. Citrus reticulata 'Chachi' fruit are rich in flavonoids and are being used as functional antioxidant ingredients for the treatment of atherosclerosis and cancer, etc. A high performance liquid chromatography-photodiode array
