Biflorin (72 h) inhibits tumor cell growth with IC50s ranging from 0.58 μg/mL (NCIH23 cell) to 14.61 μg/mL (MDA-MB-231 cell)[1].
Biflorin (3 and 6 μg/mL, 24 h) induces apoptosis, internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, mitochondrial depolarization in B16 melanoma cells[1].
Biflorin inhibits LPS-induced production of nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in RAW 264.7 macrophages via STAT1 Inactivation, with IC50 s of 51.7 and 37.1 μM, respectively[2].
Biflorin (5 and 10 μg/mL, 3 h) inhibits H2O2-induced oxidative damage by reducing lipid peroxidation and DNA damage in V79 mammalian cells[3].
