Descriptions:
Vicenin-2 (VCN-2), an active constituent of the medicinal herb Ocimum Sanctum Linn or Tulsi, it can effectively induce anti-proliferative, anti-angiogenic and pro-apoptotic effect in CaP cells (PC-3, DU-145 and LNCaP) irrespective of their androgen responsiveness or p53 status;VCN-2 in combination with docetaxel (DTL) synergistically inhibited the growth of prostate tumors in vivo with a greater decrease in the levels of AR, pIGF1R, pAkt, PCNA, cyclin D1, Ki67, CD31, and increase in E-cadherin; it could as a single agent and in combination with DTL in carcinoma of prostate (CaP).

Vicenin-2 has potential anti-inflammatory activity, can modify LPS-induced total nitrite and TNF-α production, in addition to the LPS-induced translocation of the nuclear factor NF-κB.[2]
vicenin-2 and scolymoside, can suppress high-glucose (HG)-induced vascular inflammatory processes in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and mice, HG-induced vascular inflammatory responses are critical events underlying the development of various diabetic complications; therefore, suggests that vicenin-2 and scolymoside have significant therapeutic benefits against diabetic complications and atherosclerosis.[3]
Vicenin-2 or scolymoside can reduce cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced septic mortality and pulmonary injury, indicate that vicenin-2 and scolymoside could be a potential therapeutic agent for treatment of various severe vascular inflammatory diseases via inhibition of the TGFBIp signaling pathway.[4]
Vicenin-2 has antithrombotic and antiplatelet activities.[5]
