3′,4′-Dimethoxyflavone has been used in urease inhibition assay.

Biochem/physiol Actions

3′,4′-dimethoxyflavone is a competitive antagonist of the AhR that inhibits AhR-mediated induction of CYP1A1, and also displays antiestrogen activity in breast tumor cell lines. The compound blocks transformation of the cytosolic AhR complex, and formation of nuclear AhR complexes.

3′,4′-dimethoxyflavone is a competitive antagonist of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) that inhibits AhR-mediated induction of CYP1A1, and also displays antiestrogen activity in breast tumor cell lines.

3′,4′-Dimethoxyflavone is a flavone compound, which has the ability to prevent the production and accumulation of poly (ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymer. It guards against N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) toxicity in cortical neurons. 3′,4′-Dimethoxyflavone is a member of the class of plant-derived polyphenolic flavonoids. It is known to have antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-atherogenic, hypolipidemic and neuroprotective or neurotrophic effects.
