Abstract

Eupatilin (5,7-dihydroxy-3′,4′,6-trimethoxyflavone) is a pharmacologically active flavone obtained from several medicinal plants. Because it is a natural flavone, it has been discovered to be a major ingredient in the seeds, flowers, leaves, and stems of several plants, making it a therapeutic representative. Eupatilin is reported to have a variety of pharmacological characteristics, including anticancer, antioxidant, neuroprotective, antiallergic, cardioprotective, and anti-inflammatory properties. It has also been linked to the regulation of multiple cell-signaling pathways involved in proliferation, inflammation, and a variety of other diseases. It is predicted that eupatilin might be structurally optimized for the production of derivative analogues in order to improve its efficacy, reduce toxicity, and optimize absorption characteristics, ultimately leading to powerful therapeutic candidates. Despite current findings to support eupatilin’s numerous pharmacological effects, more research into its molecular mechanism of action is required to clarify the entire range of its pharmacological activities.
