Description
A flavonoid with diverse biological activities; reduces ApoB protein levels, ACAT2 expression, and LDL degradation in HepG2 cells from 10-200 µM; inhibits IgG-induced β-hexosaminidase release from RBL-2H3 cells (IC50 = 0.099 mg/ml); inhibits LPS-induced NO production and reduces levels of iNOS, IL-6, and IL-1β in BV-2 microglial cells; inhibits passive cutaneous anaphylaxis in mice at 5 mg/kg; reduces body weight loss, colon shortening, and ulcer severity in a mouse model of TNBS-induced ulcerative colitis; reduces cortical and hippocampal neuronal apoptosis and increases time spent in the target quadrant in the Morris water maze in a mouse model of LPS-induced neuronal inflammation
