Biological Activity
Hydroxygenkwanin (7-O-Methylluteolin) is a natural flavonoid that is one of the main components of Clove Daphne. It has antioxidant, antiglioma and anticancer effects.
in vitro
Hydroxygenkwanin (7-O-Methylluteolin) inhibits C6 glioma cell proliferation in a dose dependent manner.
It induces the cell cycle arrest by flow cytometry and inhibits colony formation ability and cell movement. Hydroxygenkwanin induces cell cycle arrest through p21 activation and causes intrinsic cell apoptosis pathway.
