Multitarget Bioactivity: Antidiabetic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Oncological Applications
Tumor Suppression: Inhibits DNA-binding of NF-κB p65, inducing apoptosis in cancer cells.
Antimetastatic: Reduces MMP-9 expression by 76% at 10 μM (prevents metastasis).
Antiviral & Metabolic Health
Anti-HIV: Blocks viral release from infected cells (validated by University of Granada).
Antidiabetic: Lowers blood glucose via GLUT4 translocation enhancement.
Antioxidant Efficacy
ROS Scavenging: Neutralizes superoxide and hydroxyl radicals (EC₅₀ < 10 μM).
DNA Protection: Reduces oxidative damage in UV-exposed cells.
