Product Data
Biological target:
Diosmetin is a natural flavonoid which inhibits human CYP1A enzyme activity with an IC50 of 40 μM in HepG2 cell.
In vitro activity:
MTT and CCK8 analysis was used to evaluate the inhibitory effects of Dio (diosmetin) in HepG2 cells. Results from the present study demonstrate that Dio inhibits cell proliferation in HepG2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner (Fig. 1C). Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry with the results indicating that Dio may induce cell apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner (Fig. 1D). Reference: Mol Med Rep. 2016 Jul;14(1):159-64. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27176768/
In vivo activity:
In this study, the effects of diosmetin on chronic asthma were investigated with an emphasis on the modulation of airway remodeling in BALB/c mice challenged with ovalbumin (OVA). It was found that diosmetin significantly relieved inflammatory cell infiltration, goblet cell hyperplasia, and collagen deposition in the lungs of asthmatic mice and notably reduced AHR in these animals. The OVA-induced increases in total cell and eosinophil counts in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were reversed, and the level of OVA-specific immunoglobulin E in serum was attenuated by diosmetin administration, implying an anti-Th2 activity of diosmetin.
