Features:

Vitexin - Apigenin-8-C-Glucoside

Alternative Names: Apigenin-8-C-glucoside, apigenin-8-C-β-D-glucopyranoside

Type: Flavone C-glycoside / apigenin derivative

Function: Vitexin is a naturally occurring C-glycosylated flavone in which glucose is attached to apigenin at the C-8 position. It exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, metabolic, cardiovascular, neuroprotective, and antiproliferative activities and can modulate pathways involving NF-κB, Nrf2/HO-1, MAPK, PI3K/AKT, AMPK, HIF-1α, apoptosis, and oxidative stress.

-see also IsoVitexin

Cancer: Preclinical studies indicate antiproliferative, pro-apoptotic, anti-migratory, anti-invasive, and anti-inflammatory effects across multiple cancer models. Reported mechanisms include modulation of PI3K/AKT, MAPK, NF-κB, HIF-1α, ROS, apoptosis, and cell-cycle signaling. Clinical anticancer efficacy has not been established.

Alzheimer's Disease: Preclinical evidence suggests neuroprotective activity through antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, reduction of neuronal injury, regulation of oxidative stress and mitochondrial function, and modulation of signaling pathways relevant to cognitive impairment and amyloid-associated neurotoxicity. Clinical efficacy for Alzheimer's disease has not been established.

Type:
β-catenin and ZEB1 are two important proteins that play significant roles in cancer biology, particularly in the processes of cell adhesion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and tumor progression.
β-catenin is a key component of the Wnt signaling pathway, which is crucial for cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. It also plays a role in cell-cell adhesion by linking cadherins to the actin cytoskeleton.
Role in Cancer: ZEB1 is often upregulated in cancer and is associated with increased invasiveness and metastasis. It can repress epithelial markers (like E-cadherin) and promote mesenchymal markers (like N-cadherin and vimentin), facilitating the transition to a more aggressive cancer phenotype.

(MMP)-2 and MMP-9, which are the down-stream targets of β-catenin and play a crucial role in cancer cell metastasis.
