Apigenin exhibits potential anti-cancer properties by inhibiting cancer cell growth, inducing apoptosis, and preventing angiogenesis in preclinical studies. Further human research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.

Apigenin, a flavonoid compound, has shown potential anti-cancer properties in preclinical studies. Its mechanisms of action include inhibiting cancer cell growth by interfering with cell cycle progression, inducing apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cancer cells to eliminate them, and preventing angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels that feed tumors) to starve the cancer. These effects are mainly observed in in vitro experiments and animal models, indicating promise but requiring further human studies to confirm efficacy and safety.
