Description：Hispidulin is a natural flavone with a broad spectrum of biological activities. Hispidulin is a Pim-1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 2.71 μM.

In Vitro：Hispidulin induces cell death in a dose- and time-dependent manner in HepG2 cells. Hispidulin induces apoptosis through mitochondrial dysfunction, which is characterized by decreased Bcl-2/Bax ratio, disrupted mitochondrial membrane potential and increased release of cytochrome C and activated capase-3[2].

In Vivo：Hispidulin shows significant inhibitory effect on mice tumor size[2]. Hispidulin treatment effectively prevents ovariectomy-induced body weight loss and attenuates ovariectomy-induced bone loss. Hispidulin treatment also decreases trabecular spacing in ovariectomy mice[3]. Intraperitoneally administering hispidulin(10 or 50mg/ kg) to rats 30 min before intraperitoneally injecting kainic acid (15mg/kg) increases seizure latency and decreases seizure score. In addition, hispidulin substantially attenuates kainic acid-induced hippocampal neuronal cell death, and this protective effect is accompanied by the suppression of microglial activation and the production of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α in the hippocampus[4].

Animal Administration：Mice: Tumor are established in mice. Mice are treated with DMSO or Hispidulin at a dosage of 10, 20 or 40 mg/kg/day for 35 days. The body weight of tumour-bearing mice is recorded every week and tumour volume is calculated [2].

Cell Assay：HepG2 cells are treated with different concentrations of hispidulin (50, 100, 200 μM) for 24, 48 and 72 h. Following treatment, cells are further incubated with MTT reagents at 37°C for 4 h before DMSO is added, to dissolve farmazan crystals, and absorbance is measured at 570 nm in a microplate reader[2].
