Biological Activity

5-methoxyflavone is a novel DNA polymerase-beta inhibitor and neuroprotective agent against beta-amyloid toxicity. The treatment with 5-methoxyflavone (5-MF) at various times (3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 h) in MOLT-4 cells results in a time dependent reduction in the levels of antiapoptotic proteins cFLIP, Mcl-1 and an increase in the proapoptotic protein BAX. 5-MF induces both TRAIL-R1(DR4) and TRAIL-R2 (DR5) in a time-dependent manner.

Mizoribine (Bredinin) is an imidazole nucleoside and an immunosuppressive agent with an IC50 of approximately 100 μM. Mizoribine inhibits replication of SARS-CoV with IC50s of 3.5 μg/mL and 16 μg/mL for SARS-CoV Frankfurt-1 and SARS-CoV HKU39849, respectively.

Capecitabine

Capecitabine is an orally-administered chemotherapeutic agent. Capecitabine is a precursor, that is enzymatically converted to 5-fluorouracil in the tumor, where it inhibits DNA synthesis and slows growth of tumor tissue. Capecitabine may inhibit cytochrome CYP2C9 enzyme, and therefore increase levels of substrates such as phenytoin and other substrates of CYP2C9.
