Description of Arctigenin

Arctigenin,a natural lignan compound,has demonstrated anticancer activities in cancer. Arctigenin exhibits potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiviral (influenza A virus) activities [3,4].

Arctigenin (40 µM;48h) inhibited the growth of U87MG and T98G cells, induced G0/G1 cell-cycle arrest and triggered cell apoptosis in glioma cells[1]. Arctigenin (10,20,40,80 and 100μmol/L;48h) possesses anti-tumor activity in bladder cancer T24 cells. At the molecular level, arctigenin was able to reduce cyclin D1 and phospho-ERK1/2 expression, but induce phospho-p38 levels[4]. Arctigenin (0,1.56,12.5,100 μM; 24h) induce apoptosis in HCC cells via mitochondria and Fas/FasL-dependent apoptotic pathways[5].

Arctigenin (25 mg/kg;ip; twice daily ) for 23 day increased insulin-stimulated AKT phosphorylation in gastrocnemius muscle and liver, but not in perirenal fat[2]. Arctigenin (50mg/kg/day;ip) for 4 day confers protection against LPS-induced lung inflammatory and oxidative damage [6].
