Eupalitin from Asparagus falcatus (Linn.) has anticancer activity and induces activation of caspases 3/7 in human colorectal tumor cells
3,5,4′-Trihydroxy-6,7-dimethoxy-flavone (Eupalitin) has been isolated from the leaves of Asparagus falcatus (Linn.). Anti-proliferation and apoptosis studies were conducted on eupalitin. Results showed that eupalitin exhibited significant cytotoxicity against human colorectal tumor cells. It is fo...

description |
3,5,4′-Trihydroxy-6,7-dimethoxy-flavone (Eupalitin) has been isolated from the leaves of Asparagus
falcatus (Linn.). Anti-proliferation and apoptosis studies were conducted on eupalitin. Results showed
that eupalitin exhibited significant cytotoxicity against human colorectal tumor cells. It is found that
eupalitin induces the activation of caspases 3/7, a hallmark of apoptosis. The study suggests that the
anti-proliferative property of eupalitin towards the human colorectal tumor cells may be probably due to
its capability to induce apoptosis in cells. |
