Application
Casticin from Vitex trifolia is used to study its mechanisms of action as an antiiflammatory and anticancer agent via processes such as TRAIL-induced apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, ROS generation, and glutathione (GSH) depletion.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Casticin has anticancer, pro-apoptotic, anti-proliferative, anti-asthmatic, and anti-angiogenic properties. In addition, it exhibits anti-inflammatory behavior by means of its inhibitory effect on lipoxygenases and T- & B-lymphocytes. Due to its oestrogenic activity, it is being used to manage Premenstrual syndrome in women. It is also reported to mitigate rheumatoid arthritis and liver fibrosis manifestations.
Tubulin-binding anticancer flavonoid. Casticin induces apoptosis in cancer cells.
General description
Casticin is one of the flavonoids present in the traditional Chinese medicine Inula japonica Thunb. It is a polymethyl compound with three rings, a catechol moiety at ortho position, one double bond, two hydroxyl groups, and four methoxy groups. It has been isolated from the fruits, seeds, and leaves of various Vitex species.

Following an initial clean-up step on silica, high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) was used to purify a flavone, casticin (5,3'-dihydroxy-3,6,7, 4'-tetramethoxyflavone), from an extract of the dried leaves of Artemisia annua L. The two-phase solvent system used was composed of n-hexane-ethyl

Casticin (3',5-dihydroxy-3, 4',6,7-tetramethoxyflavone) has been revealed to possess various kinds of pharmacological activities, including immunomodulatory, anti-hyperprolactinemia, anti-tumor and neuroprotetective activities. In order to gain an understanding of the biotransformation of casticin in vivo, a systematic method based on liquid chromatography-electrospray
