Description and Uses
Amentoflavone is a biflavonoid originally isolated from Selaginella. It has a wide variety of biological effects including antibacterial, antioxidant, antiviral, antidiabetic, and neuroprotective activities. Amentoflavone has antiviral activity against the influenza A subtypes H1N1 and H3N2, influenza B, and herpes simplex virus 1 (EC50s = 3.1 and 4.3, 0.56, and 17.9 μg/ml, respectively). It has antidiabetic effects such that it dose-dependently increases insulin receptor phosphorylation and activation and inhibits hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate (p-NPP) catalyzed by protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B; IC50 = 7.3 μM). Amentoflavone reduces the time mice spend immobile in the forced swim test, a measure of antidepressant efficacy, in a dose-dependent manner.
Amentoflavone, is isolated from an Et acetate ext. of the whole plant of Selaginella tamariscina. It has been shown to have antitumor activity, such as mitochondria-mediated apoptotic cell death. Amentoflavone can interact with many medications by being a potent inhibitor of CYP3A4 and CYP2C9, which are enzymes responsible for the metabolism of some drugs in the body.
