scutellarein/breast neoplasms

Among the different mechanisms proposed to explain the cancer-protecting effect of dietary flavonoids, substrate-like interactions with cytochrome P450 CYP1 enzymes have recently been explored. In the present study, the metabolism of the flavonoids chrysin, baicalein, scutellarein, sinensetin and

OBJECTIVE To investigate the absorption and transepithelial transport characteristics of scutellarin and scutellarein in the human colonic adenocarcinoma cell (Caco-2) monolayer model. The influence factors on these two compounds' absorption were investigated, such as buffer solution, duration of

To explore antitumor agents with potent efficacy and low toxicity, scutellarein derivatives with benzoic acid mustard (10a-c, 11a-c and 13a-c) were designed and synthesized. The antiproliferative activities of the target derivatives against A549, MCF-7 and Bel-7402 cancer cell lines were tested.

Natural flavonoids with methoxy substitutions are metabolized by CYP1 enzymes to yield the corresponding demethylated products. The present study aimed to characterize the metabolism and further antiproliferative activity of the hydroxylated flavonoids apigenin, luteolin, scutellarein, kaempferol

17beta-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17beta-HSD) type 1 converts estrone to estradiol, a potent ligand for estrogen receptors. It represents an important target for the development of drugs for treatment of estrogen-dependent diseases. In the present study, we have examined the inhibitory activities

Scutellarin [scutellarein-7-O-glucuronide (S-7-G)] displayed a unique pharmacokinetic profile in humans after oral administration: the original compound was hardly detected, whereas its isomeric metabolite isoscutellarin [scutellarein-6-O-glucuronide (S-6-G)] had a markedly high exposure. Previous
