Apigetrin, a flavonoid glycoside, is present in a variety of medicinal plants with anti-inflammatory and ant-oxidant properties. It is isolated from various herbal medicines, including Matricaria chamomilla, Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, Teucrium gnaphalodes and Stachys tibetica Vatke. Apigetrin may induce cancer cell differentiation – it could be one of the possible explanations of its antitumor effects. Inhibition of bright light-induced retinal oxidative stress and retinal inflammatory responses was associated with the retinal protection conferred by Apigetrin.
