Description:
Tangeritin is a polymethoxylated flavone isolated from peels of citrus fruits with antiproliferative and antioxidant properties. It inhibits signaling in cancer cells, reducing ERK phosphorylation and growth of estradiol-stimulated T47D breast cancer cells and blocking p38 MAPK, JNK, and Akt activation in interleukin-1beta-stimulated human lung carcinoma A549 cells. It is described to block cell cycle progression at G1 and induce apoptosis. Shows anti-inflammatory, osteoprotective and neuroprotective effects. Tangeritin activates the pregnane X receptor, inducing MDR1 expression in human colonic LS180 cancer cells. Shown to be a Notch-1 inhibitor. Tangeretin stimulates glucose uptake via regulation of AMPK signaling pathways and has been shown to antagonize ABCB1-mediated multidrug resistance.
