Robustaflavone induces G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and exhibits anti-angiogenic effects in vivo

Abstract We investigated the anti-angiogenic and pro-apoptotic effects of robustaflavone (RF), a naturally occurring biflavonoid, on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). RF inhibited HUVEC proliferation and showed cytotoxicity that inhibited HUVEC viability. RF-induced apoptosis was char...
