A flavonoid with diverse biological activities
Eupatorin is a flavonoid that has been found in L. camara and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4 It inhibits the growth of HeLa, MK-1, and B16/F10 tumor cells (GI50s = 15, 58, and 44 ?M, respectively).1 Eupatorin is active against T. cruzi epimastigotes and trypomastigotes (IC50s = 0.2 and 61.8 ?g/ml, respectively) without inducing cytotoxicity in Vero cells (IC50 = >500 ?g/ml).2 It induces vasorelaxation in isolated rat thoracic aortic rings precontracted with phenylephrine (pD2 = 6.66).3 Eupatorin (10 and 100 ?M) reduces nuclear translocation of NF-κB and STAT1α in J774 murine macrophages and reduces paw edema in a mouse model of carrageenan-induced paw inflammation when administered at a dose of 50 mg/kg.4
