Bioactivity

• In Vivo:
  Naringenin, found in grapefruit juice, has been demonstrated to inhibit the human cytochrome P450 isoform CYP1A2. This can adversely alter the pharmacokinetics of several common agents in human (or directly homologous) hosts, potentially rendering otherwise harmless substances carcinogenic.

• In Vitro:
  In both normoglycemic and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus rat models, oral administration of 50 mg/kg Naringenin resulted in a significant decrease in plasma glucose levels.

• Cell Research:
  Naringenin is dissolved in DMSO and diluted in cell culture medium. The cells are rinsed with PBS and grown in a medium containing various concentrations of naringenin (50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300 μM). The solvent DMSO treated cells are served as control. After 24 hrs of treatment, the medium is removed and replaced by another medium containing MTT. Cell viability is measured using the MTT assay.
