Benefits of Apigenin

Apigenin is one of the flavonoids - more precisely one of the citrus bioflavonoids. Apigenin, just like most flavonoids, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor properties. As with many flavonoids, apigenin has potential to reduce the risk of cancer since it has anti-tumor activity. It also could potentially be useful in allergic conditions since it can have anti-inflammatory properties. It is a nontoxic dietary flavonoid that has been shown to possess anti-tumor properties and therefore poses special interest for the development of a novel chemopreventive and/or chemotherapeutic agent for cancer.

Main Function of Apigenin

It can induce the apoptosis of human gastric cancer cells via activating mitochondrial signal transdution pathway and promotes proliferative inhibition and apoptotic induction of human acute myeloid leukaemia HL-60 cells by cisplatin (DDP).

2. Apigenin powder also could potentially be useful in allergic conditions since it can have anti-inflammatory properties.

3. Apigenin is a non-toxic plant flavonoid, having been shown to free radical scavenging properties and antioxidant effects.
