Vitexin, identified as apigenin-8-C-β-D-glucopyranoside, is a flavonoid compound found in Anthurium versicolor, Ficaria verna Huds. (Ranunculaceae), Cucumis sativus L. (Cucurbitaceae), and Acer palmatum (Aceraceae). Vitexin is an active component of many traditional Chinese medicines. Vitexin has recently received increased attention due to its wide range of pharmacological effects, including but not limited to anti-oxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-hyperalgesic, and neuroprotective effects.
