HIDE SMILES / InChI
Naringenin is one of the most abundant flavonoids in natural citrus fruits and has been studied as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. Besides, it has been investigated for its ability to inhibit the growth of breast, colon, gastric and prostate cancer cells. Experiments on rodents have revealed, that naringenin is a component of Drynaria Rhizome and can enhance memory function and ameliorate Alzheimer's disease pathologies. Using the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, a rodent model of human multiple sclerosis was determined that naringenin may have a potential to ameliorate autoimmune disease by favorably modulating autoimmune response. The precise mechanism of action of naringenin compound is not clear, but it is known, that it is a partial agonist of estrogen receptor that can act as a competitive antagonist in the presence of a potent (or full) agonist. In addition, it binds to collapsin response mediator protein 2 protein (CRMP2) and reduces the Aβ-induced phosphorylation of CRMP2, resulting in axonal growth facilitation.

Sample Use Guides

orally administered a high dose of Drynaria Rhizome (DR) (13 g kg-1) to the 5XFAD mice. Naringenin was present at 0.27 mg g-1 in DR extract
Route of Administration: Oral
Naringenin (NGN) induced anti-inflammatory effects in paraquat (PQ)-treated SH-SY5Y cells by a mechanism associated with the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. Pretreatment with NGN at 80 µM for 2 h decreased the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in PQ-treated SH-SY5Y cells. The production of nitric oxide (NO·) and levels of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and of the inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were downregulated by NGN in the cells exposed to PQ. Moreover, NGN downregulated the activation of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in PQ-treated cells.
