Phytochemical name or plant extracts Orientin
PMID 27630565
Literature evidence Our data revealed that flax C-glucosides as well as pure compounds are cytotoxic toward MCF-7 cells and inhibit their proliferation.
IUPAC name 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-5,7-dihydroxy-8-[(2S,3R,4R,5S,6R)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)oxan-2-yl]chromen-4-one
Phytochemicals’ class or type of plant extracts Flavonoid
Source of phytochemicals or plant Extracts Oryza sativa
Geographical availability China North-Central, China South-Central, China Southeast
Plant parts Stem
Other cancers Breast cancer
Target gene or protein MMP9, IL-8
Gene or Protein evidence Orientin inhibits migratory and invasive responses by suppressing MMP-9 and IL-8 expression through mitigation of TPA-induced PKCα and ERK activation, as well as the nuclear translocation of AP-1 and STAT3.
Target pathways PKCα/ ERK/AP-1/STAT3-mediated signaling pathways
IC50 NA
Potency The inhibition was stronger after 48 h of treatment and showed that vitexin reduced proliferation by up to 40% of the control value, while isoorientin inhibited proliferation by up to 50% , and orientin by up to 55%
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7
Additional information  These results clearly demonstrated that flax straw metabolites effectively induced growth inhibition and apoptosis in human breast adenocarcinoma cells.
