Apigenin 7-glucoside is a flavonoid with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, anti-adipogenic and anxiolytic activities. It has been shown to inhibit LPS-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 cells or have hepatoprotective activity due to it's antioxidant activities, acting as scavengers of ROS. Apigenin 7-glucoside has been shown to have anti-proliferative activity, possible through cell cycle inhibition and consequently induce apoptosis. it also has the ability to enhance melanogenesis synthesis and tyrosinase activity of B16F10 melanoma cells. Apigenin 7-glucoside has shown neuroprotective effects possibly by inhibiting neuroinflammation and its antioxidant activity. Apigenin-7-O-glucoside inhibits adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes at early stage of adipogenesis at high concentrations, by downregulating PPARgamma and CEBP-alpha.
