Biological Activity
Lumichrome is a natural photodegradation product of riboflavin present endogenously in humans that acts as a potent inhibitor of lung cancer cell growth. The compound effectively induces p53-dependent apoptosis through intrinsic mitochondrial pathways while suppressing downstream AKT and β-catenin signaling cascades critical for cancer stem cell maintenance and tumor cell survival.
