Chemistry:Daphnetin
Daphnetin is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C
9H
6O
4. It has been isolated from plants of the genus Daphne.[1][2] It has also been found in Matricaria chamomilla (chamomile).[3]
It a crystalline solid with a melting point of 256 °C.[4] It is soluble in boiling water.[4]
Daphnetin can undergo enzymatic glycosylation to yield its 7-O-glucoside which is called daphnin (daphnetin 7-β-D-glucopyranoside). The reaction is catalyzed by the enzyme O-dihydroxy coumarin 7-O-glucosyltransferase.[5][6]
Daphnetin shows several neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects on the inhibition of the TLR4/NF-κB mediated inflammatory signaling pathway. They also could inhibit the IKKs/IkBa/NF-κB, AKT, and the Src/FAK/ERK1/2 multi-target medication signaling pathway for anti-angiogenesis and cancer.[7]
Daphnetin has been reported to be a strong sensitizer, which means that this compound and its glycosidic derivatives (e.g. daphnin) can be a cause of allergic reactions.[3]
