Anti-angiogenic activity of a homoisoflavanone from Cremastra appendiculata
Abstract
A homoisoflavanone, 5,7-dihydroxy-3-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl)-6-methoxychroman-4-one ( 1), was isolated from the bulb of Cremastra appendiculata (D. Don) Makino (Orchidaceae) as a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis. It inhibited basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-induced in vitro angiogenesis and in vivo angiogenesis of the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) of chick embryo without showing any toxicity.
