PMID 34267320
Literature evidence We observed that breast tumor cells treated with fisetin show a 20-30% decreased nucleolar abundance per cell and a 30-60% downregulation of RNA Pol I transcription activity, as well as a 50-70% reduction in nascent rRNA synthesis, depending on the cell line.
IUPAC name 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3,7-dihydroxychromen-4-one
Phytochemicals’ class or type of plant extracts Flavonoid
Source of phytochemicals or plant Extracts Acacia carneorum Acacia buxifolia
Geographical availability Acacia carneorum - New South Wales, South Australia Acacia buxifolia - New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria
Plant parts NA
Other cancers Breast cancer, Stomach cancer
Target gene or protein PTEN
Gene or Protein evidence Furthermore, fisetin suppressed phosphoinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-Akt-GSK-3β signaling pathway but upregulated the expression of PTEN mRNA and protein in a concentration-dependent manner.
Target pathways PTEN/Akt/GSK-3β signaling pathway MAPK/ERK pathway
IC50 NA
Potency Therefore, fisetin may be useful as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer.
Cell line/ mice model MDA-MB-231, MCF-7, BT-549
Additional information  Fisetin modulates the cytoskeletal structure of endothelial cells by increasing microtubule stability and thus displays antiangiogenic activity
