Paeonol exerts anti-angiogenic and anti-metastatic activities.
PMID: Biol Pharm Bull. 2009 Jul ;32(7):1142-7. PMID: 19571375 Abstract Title: Paeonol exerts anti-angiogenic and anti-metastatic activities through downmodulation of Akt activation and inactivation of matrix metalloproteinases. Abstract: Paeonol (2'-hydroxy-4'-methoxyacetophenone) is known to possess anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activities. Recently there is evidence that anti-inflammatory agents may be useful in the setting of angiogenesis-related diseases. Thus …
