Rhoifolin 

Rhoifolin is a flavone glycoside can be isolated from Rhus succedanea. Rhoifolin has anti-diabetic effect acting through enhanced adiponectin secretion, tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor-β and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT 4) translocation. Rhoifolin has an anti-inflammatory action via multi-level regulation of inflammatory mediators. Rhoifolin ameliorates titanium particle-stimulated osteolysis and attenuates osteoclastogenesis via RANKL-induced NF-κB and MAPK pathways. Rhoifolin also has cytotoxic activity against different cancer cell lines^[1][2][3].

Rhoifolin (0-0.1 μM) has cytotoxic activity against different cancer cell lines with 77.0 nM, 60.1 nM, 39.0 nM, 10.7 nM and 10.1 nM in MRC-5, HCT, HepG2, HeLa and Hep2, respectively^[3].

Rhoifolin (12, 24, 30, 36, and 40 mg/kg; PO, for 7 days) has radioprotective effect against radiation-induced decrease of blood platelets and cardiac biochemical lesions in whole body irradiated mice^[4].
