* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble. * Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations. * Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.) |
Description | Amentoflavone (Didemethyl Ginkgetin) is a biflavonoid originally isolated from Selaginella with antibacterial, antioxidant, antiviral, antidiabetic, and neuroprotective activities. |
---|---|
In vitro | Amentoflavone induces morphological changes and reduces the percentage of viable MCF-7 cells. Amentoflavone induces apoptosis and chromatin condensation, DNA strand breaks in MCF-7 cells. Amentoflavone is also reported to induce cell-cycle arrest at the sub-G1 phase, and apoptosis via mitochondria-emanated intrinsic pathways in SiHa and CaSki human cervical cancer cells[1]. |
In vivo | In an animal model, amentoflavone is found to significantly inhibit B16F-10 melanoma-induced solid tumor development in C57BL/6 mice[1]. Amentoflavone can cross the blood-brain barrier. It effectively prevents pilocarpine-induced epilepsy in a mouse kindling model, suppresses NF-kB activation and expression, inhibits excessive discharge of hippocampal neurons resulting in a reduction in epileptic seizures, shortened attack time, and diminished loss and apoptosis of hippocampal neurons[2]. |
