| Targets |
5,7-Dimethoxyflavone targets multiple pathways. It inhibits cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A enzymes. In cancer cells, it induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase and apoptosis. It has anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory, and antineoplastic effects. As a flavonoid, it may also interact with various signaling pathways involved in inflammation and metabolism.

| ln Vitro |
In MDCK/Bcrp1 cells, 5,7-Dimethoxyflavone (5 and 50 μM, 1 hour) inhibits Bcrp1-mediated sorafenib efflux [2]. In B16F10 melanoma cells, 5,7-dimethoxyflavone (0-25 μM, 48 hours) promotes melanogenesis by raising cAMP [4]. 5,7-dimethoxyflavone (0 - 100 μM, 48 hours) can block ischemia, promote oxidative termination, and trigger apoptosis in VK2/E6E7 and End1/E6E7 cells. It can also dilute the cells in cells by accumulation of TG in 3T3-L1 adipocytes [6].Cell.
In vitro, 5,7-Dimethoxyflavone induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase, and apoptosis in cancer cells. It inhibits cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A enzymes. The compound has anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory, and antineoplastic effects. Its activity is typically evaluated using cell viability and proliferation assays in cancer cell lines, as well as enzyme inhibition assays for CYP3A. However, specific IC50 values are not extensively reported in the available literature. |
| ln Vivo |
In mouse liver, 5,7-dimethoxyflavone (10 mg/kg, facial, once daily for 10 days) can lower the expression levels of CYP3A11 and CYP3A25 proteins [1]. In HFD mice, 5,7-Dimethoxyflavone (25 and 50 mg/kg, face) and 5,7-Dimethoxyflavone (50 mg/kg/d, epidermis, for 6 weeks) decrease body weight while increasing and inhibiting liver function[5].
In vivo, 5,7-Dimethoxyflavone has been studied for its anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory, and antineoplastic effects. As a major component of Kaempferia parviflora, it contributes to the plant's traditional medicinal uses. However, specific in vivo efficacy data, including dosing regimens and animal models, are not extensively detailed in the available literature. Further studies are needed to fully characterize its in vivo pharmacological profile. The compound is a research tool for studying flavonoid biology. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Cell-free assays for 5,7-Dimethoxyflavone involve evaluating its inhibitory activity against cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A enzymes. Enzyme activity is monitored using fluorogenic or luminescent substrates. Inhibition is assessed by incubating CYP3A with varying concentrations of 5,7-Dimethoxyflavone and measuring residual activity. IC50 values are determined from dose-response curves. The compound's antioxidant activity can also be assessed using cell-free radical scavenging assays.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
