Description of Luteolin

Luteolin is a flavonoid compound with multiple functions such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-cancer[1, 2]. Luteolin is an effective inhibitor of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)[3].

In vitro, Luteolin (0-160µM) treatment of NCI-H460 cells for 24h inhibited cell viability in a concentration-dependent manner, induced cell cycle arrest at the S phase, increased the protein expression level of apoptosis regulatory proteins, and also inhibited cell migration[4]. Luteolin (0.05, 0.1, 5μM) treatment of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) for 24-72h activated the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and promoted BMSC osteogenic differentiation[5].

In vivo, oral administration of Luteolin (10, 25, 50, 100 mg/kg/day) to treat rats with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) significantly reduced the levels of serum liver function biomarkers (ALT, AST, total bilirubin), hyaluronic acid, and malondialdehyde, and also reduced the levels of proinflammatory factors IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-1α, and IL-18[6]. Luteolin (50, 100 mg/kg/day) to treat rats with cognitive impairment induced by infusion of Aβ (1-40) peptide significantly improved Aβ-induced spatial learning and spatial working memory impairment and cognitive impairment, increased the levels of SOD and GSH-Px in hippocampal homogenate, and reduced the level of MDA[7].

Protocol of Luteolin

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

NCI-H460 cells

Preparation Method

Cells were seeded into 96 well plates and were treated with 0, 20, 40, 80 or 160µM luteolin for 24 h at 37°C.

Reaction Conditions

0, 20, 40, 80 or 160µM; 24h

Applications

Luteolin inhibits the viability of NCI-H460 cells in a concentration-dependent manner.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Wistar rats

Preparation Method

Rats were fed a high carbohydrate/high fat diet (30% carbohydrate and 42% fat) daily for 12 weeks to induce nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Luteolin (10, 25, 50 or 100 mg/kg/day) was administered as a suspension (10% w/v in 0.9% NaCl) using an oral gavage.

Dosage form

10, 25, 50 or 100 mg/kg/day; p.o.

Applications

Luteolin to reduce activity of ALT and AST and to decrease levels of bilirubin, hyaluronic acid and malondialdehyde significantly.
