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.

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:
LC3II (Microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B light chain 3, also known as LC3) is a protein that plays a crucial role in the process of autophagy. Autophagy is a cellular process in which cells recycle and remove damaged or dysfunctional components.
LC3II is often used as a marker for autophagy, as its levels increase during autophagic activity.
LC3II is overexpressed in certain types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer.
LC3II is also known by other names, including:
    MAP1LC3B (Microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta)
    LC3B (Microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta)
    ATG8F (Autophagy-related protein 8F)
: In many cancers, increased LC3-II expression indicates enhanced autophagy, which can support tumor cell survival, especially under stress conditions (e.g., nutrient deprivation, hypoxia). This is often associated with poor prognosis and treatment resistance.
