Phytochemical Name : Naringin

Properties Information
PhytoCAT-ID PhytoCAT-1596
Phytochemical name or plant extracts Naringin
PMID 33192517
Literature evidence These experimental results showed that Balsamin combined with flavonoids can reduce HepG2 and MCF-7 cells viability and induce apoptosis, which could be considered as a promising therapeutic approach to sensitize cells to Balsamin treatment, thereby improving its efficacy in breast or liver cancer therapy.
IUPAC name (2S)-7-[(2S,3R,4S,5S,6R)-4,5-dihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)-3-[(2S,3R,4R,5R,6S)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-6-methyloxan-2-yl]oxyoxan-2-yl]oxy-5-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2,3-dihydrochromen-4-one
Phytochemicals’ class or type of plant extracts Flavonoid
Source of phytochemicals or plant Extracts Rhizoma drynariae
Geographical availability NA
Plant parts NA
Other cancers Breast cancer
Target gene or protein p21, Survivin
Gene or Protein evidence Our data demonstrated that naringin inhibited cell proliferation, and promoted cell apoptosis and G1 cycle arrest, accompanied by increased p21 and decreased survivin.
Target pathways β-catenin signaling pathway
IC50 NA
Potency Taken together, these results indicate that naringin could inhibit growth potential of TNBC cells by modulating β-catenin pathway, which suggests naringin might be used as a potential supplement for the prevention and treatment of breast cancer.
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 xenograft mice
Additional information  In contrast, over-expressing β-catenin by adenoviral vector system in TNBC cells reversed the antitumor activity of naringin, and regulated p21 and survivin.
