Induces the reversion of transformed phenotypes of v-H-ras-transformed NIH 3T3 cells at low concentration (12.5uM) by inhibiting MAP kinase activity. Also inhibits the proliferation of malignan. Apigenin is a 270Da flavonoid, which belongs to the flavone group of glycosides. It is synthesized by a wide variety of plants including cereals, grains, tea and oranges. Apigenin has been used as a calibration standard for the quantification of Hieracium pannosum Boiss, Juniperus sp, using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with Diode-Array Detection (DAD). It has been used to study effect on hormone secretion in the human adrenocortical H295R cells.
