Application


  • Nobiletin as a novel agent to enhance porcine in vitro embryo development and quality: This study explores the potential of nobiletin to improve embryo development and quality in porcine models, providing insights into its applications in reproductive biotechnology and animal science (Cajas YN, Martinez-Serrano CA, 2024 Apr 22) (source).

  • Nobiletin alleviates cisplatin-induced ototoxicity: Research indicates that nobiletin can mitigate the ototoxic effects of cisplatin chemotherapy by activating autophagy and inhibiting ferroptosis, suggesting a new therapeutic avenue for protecting auditory health during cancer treatment (Song W, Lu Z, 2024 Apr 3) (source).

  • Nobiletin targets SREBP1/ACLY to induce autophagy-dependent cell death of gastric cancer cells: This study reveals that nobiletin promotes autophagy-dependent cell death in gastric cancer cells by targeting the SREBP1/ACLY axis within the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, proposing a novel anticancer strategy (Chen M, Sun Q, 2024 Jun) (source).

  • Recent advances in the therapeutic potential of nobiletin against respiratory diseases: A comprehensive review on the therapeutic applications of nobiletin in treating respiratory diseases, emphasizing its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties as mechanisms for intervention (Qin Y, Li J, 2024 Jun) (source).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Nobiletin suppresses the expression of matrix metalloproteinases 1, 3 and 9, which participate in the break down of the extracellular matrix during tumor metastasis. Nobiletin is also involved in the increased expression of tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase 1 further preventing extracellular matrix degradation during tumor invasion. This bioflavonoid is believed to achieve both of these functions by disrupting the signal transduction pathway of Ras-Raf-MEK.
