| Flavonoid glycoside. Responsible for the bitterness of grapefruit. Naringin is a flavonoid glycoside predominantly found in citrus fruits such as grapefruit and oranges. It is known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and potential anticancer properties. It is hydrolyzed in vivo to naringenin, which exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and modulates signaling pathways (e.g., Nrf2 and NF-κB). In preclinical cancer models, naringin/naringenin is associated with cell-cycle arrest, apoptosis, and reduced invasion/metastasis, often linked to upstream modulation of survival pathways (PI3K/AKT) and stress MAPKs. Oral systemic exposure is limited due to metabolism and conjugation. -Antioxidant Activity -Induction of Apoptosis -Cell Cycle Arrest (often G1 or G2/M) -Anti-inflammatory Effects -**a natural bioenhancer(effects vary) and reported to enhance the bioavailability of drugs by inhibiting cytochrome P450 (CYP3A4 especially grape fruit juice) and P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Naringin/naringenin can inhibit CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein, contributing to grapefruit–drug interactions and potentially increasing exposure of certain medications. -Usually paired with other bioflavonoids such as quercetin, hesperidin and rutin. -Mainly obtained from grapefruit -Including enhanced solubility, improved bioavailability and targeted delivery. -Antioxidant -Inhibition of CYP19(weak/modest). Naringin suppresses the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway -Wnt/β-catenin, PI3K/Akt, NF-ĸB, and TGF-β pathways -Up-regulation of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), and inhibition of gluconeogenesis -Antioxidant effects, by modulating reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and increasing superoxide dismutase (SOD) -Naringenin can reduce carcinogenesis through pleiotropic processes such as antioxidative, apoptotic-inducing ROS generation, and cell cycle arrest -Revealed new mechanisms underlying the hypolipidemic effects of naringin and naringenin, including regulation of lipid digestion, reverse cholesterol transport, and low-density lipoprotein receptor expression -Low bioavailability (approximately 8.8%) when administered orally. Bioavailability: citrus flavonoid glycosides are hydrolyzed in the gut; systemic plasma levels are often much lower than in vitro MICs.

| CREB is a transcription factor that binds to specific DNA sequences, known as cAMP response elements (CRE), in the promoter regions of target genes. CREB is activated by phosphorylation, which allows it to bind to CRE and recruit other transcriptional coactivators. CREB regulates the expression of genes involved in various cellular processes, including: Cell growth and differentiation Apoptosis Metabolism Neurotransmission CREB is also involved in the regulation of genes involved in cancer, including: Cell cycle progression Angiogenesis Invasion and metastasis CREB is often overexpressed in cancer tissues. High levels of CREB expression are associated with poor prognosis, increased tumor aggressiveness, and resistance to therapy. CREB can promote the expression of genes involved in cell survival and proliferation. |
