Ankaflavin 是从 Monascus-Fermented 红米中提取得到的,是一种具有口服活性的PPARγ的激动剂。Ankaflavin 具有选择性的细胞毒性作用,诱导癌细胞凋亡(apoptosis)。Ankaflavin 具有抗炎、抗癌、抗动脉粥样硬化和降血脂的作用。
生物活性 | Ankaflavin, isolated from Monascus-Fermented red rice, is an orally activePPARγagonist. Ankaflavin exhibits selective cytotoxic effect and induces cell death throughapoptosisoncancercells. Ankaflavin has anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, antiatherosclerotic, and hypolipidemic effects[1][2]. |

体外研究 (In Vitro) | Ankaflavin (0-50 μg/mL, 48 h) shows cytotoxicity against cancer cells with no significant toxicity toward normal cells[1]. Ankaflavin (0-30 μg/mL, 0-48 h) arrests Hep G2 cell cycle at sub-G1 phase in a dose- and time-dependent manner[1]. Ankaflavin (25 μg/mL, 48 h) induces Hep G2 cell apoptosis[1].
Cell Cytotoxicity Assay[1] Cell Line: | A549, Hep G2, MRC-5 and WI-38 | Concentration: | 1, 10, 25, and 50 μg/mL | Incubation Time: | 48 h | Result: | Showed cytotoxicity against A549 and Hep G2 cells in a dose-dependent manner with no significant toxicity toward normal cells (MRC-5 and WI-38). |
Cell Cycle Analysis[1] Cell Line: | Hep G2 cells | Concentration: | 15, 20, 25, and 30 μg/mL | Incubation Time: | 12, 24, 36, and 48 h | Result: | Induced a distinct sub-G1 peak in Hep G2 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. |
Apoptosis Analysis[1] Cell Line: | Hep G2 cells | Concentration: | 25 μg/mL | Incubation Time: | 48 h | Result: | Exhibited significant chromatin condensation (fluorescent spot) through Hoechst staining. |

体内研究 (In Vivo) | Ankaflavin (10 mg/kg; p.o.; daily for 28 days) shows antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory activity, improves liver function and pancreatic function[2].
Animal Model: | Wistar rats (4 weeks of age), diabetes was induced by treating them with Methylglyoxal (MG) (600 mg/kg; oral) for 4 weeks[2] | Dosage: | 10 mg/kg | Administration: | Oral administration for 28 days | Result: | Exerted PPARγ agonist activity. Effectively reduced AGE (advanced glycation end-products) levels in serum, liver, and pancreas of MG-induced rats. |
