Butrin
Butrin is a compound found in Butea monosperma flowers. Butrin reduces expression of SIRT1, AURKB, cyclin D1, pAKT, GSK-3β, β-catenin, and TGF-3β expression, enhances apoptosis and ROS production in cancer cells. Butrin downregulates Wnt and NF-κB signaling, mitigates oxidative stress, reduces proinflammatory cytokine (TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8) production and suppresses neuroinflammation. Butrin inhibits IKK enzyme activity. Butrin can be used for the researches of colorectal cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, and rheumatoid arthritis.

Butrin (10-120 μM; 24-48 h) inhibits SW480 human colorectal cancer cell proliferation with an IC50 of 40 μM, while sparing IHH human hepatocyte cells[1].
Butrin (40 μM; 48 h) induces both early and late apoptosis in SW480 human colorectal cancer cells with nuclear condensation and fragmentation[1].
Butrin (40 μM; 48 h) disrupts mitochondrial membrane potential and increases intracellular ROS production in SW480 human colorectal cancer cells[1].
Butrin (40 μM; 48 h) upregulates pro-apoptotic gene expression and downregulates cell cycle and Wnt pathway gene expression in SW480 human colorectal cancer cells[1].
Butrin (40 μM; 48 h) upregulates pro-apoptotic and tumor suppressor protein expression and downregulates anti-apoptotic, cell cycle, and Wnt pathway protein expression in SW480 human colorectal cancer cells[1].
Butrin (1-10 µg/mL; 2-hour pretreatment) inhibits PMACI-induced TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 levels and inhibits NF-κB p65 activation in HMC-1 human mast cells[3].
Butrin (5-1000 ng/mL) inhibits recombinant human IKK kinase activity in a concentration-dependent manner[3].
