Biochem/physiol Actions
Gossypetin is a hexahydroxylated flavonoid found in the flowers and the calyx of Hibiscus, which exhibits numerous pharmacological effects, including antioxidant, antibacterial and anticancer activities. It induces apoptosis and autophagic cell death in prostate cancer cells. Gossypetin is a potent inhibitor of MKK3 and MKK6 protein kinases that suppresses esophageal cancer growth.

Gossypetin (GTIN), a naturally occurring hexahydroxy flavone, has been shown to possess antimutagenic, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antiatherosclerotic effects. Here, we investigated the mechanism(s) underlying the anticancer potential of GTIN. In this study, investigations were showed that GTIN preferentially induces programed
