5,7,4'-Trimethoxyflavone can be isolated from the medicinal plant Kaempferia parviflora (KP). It acts as a CFTR activator with an EC50 of 64 μM, induces apoptosis, and increases the proteolytic activation of caspase-3. This compound also causes the degradation of ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) protein, exhibits antitumor activity, and can be used to prevent skin aging and oxidative stress.
