Abstract
Iristectorigenin A is a polyphenol existing primarily in rhizomes and leaves of various plant family species but mainly has been reported in Iridaceae family. Many research works have revealed that dietary iristectorigenin A can effectively diminish the risk of chronic ailments like cancer, diabetes, obesity, inflammatory diseases, and oxidative-related diseases. Iristectorigenin A may assist by boosting the body’s antioxidant protection against free radicals, which stimulate the progression of a variety of ailments. Iristectorigenin A has been shown to amend several important fundamentals in cellular signal transduction pathways that are related to apoptosis, angiogenesis, and inflammation at the molecular level. The goal of this chapter is to afford an insight into the molecular basis of iristectorigenin A’s probable biological actions as well as to synthesize information about its chemistry.
