Biochem/physiol Actions

8-Prenylnaringenin, a strong plant-derived estrogen receptor ligand, is a phytoestrogen that inhibits multidrug resistance-associated transporters, P-glycoprotein and MRP1. 8-Prenylnaringenin also inhibits EGF signaling at the level of phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase ((PI(3)K))activity.

8-Prenylnaringenin (8PN), one of the strongest plant-derived oestrogen receptors (ERs) ligand, has been suggested to have potential cancer chemo-preventive activities and anti-angiogenic properties. Because published data suggest that ERs serve as nodal point that allows interactions between hormones and growth

Flavonoids with hydrophobic e.g. prenyl substituents might constitute the promising candidates for multidrug resistance (MDR) reversal agents. The interaction of 8-prenylnaringenin (8-isopentenylnaringenin), a potent phytoestrogen isolated from common hop (Humulus lupulus), with two multidrug resistance-associated ABC transporters of cancer cells
