Geiparvarin

Geiparvarin is an anticancer agent and an inhibitor of MAO-B (pIC50 = 6.84 μM). Geiparvarin exerts anti-tumor effects by downregulating COX2 expression and inhibiting angiogenesis. Geiparvarin blocks the cell cycle at the G1 phase and induces apoptosis of cancer cells. Geiparvarin has anti-microtubule activity and destroys the cytoskeleton to exert anti-proliferative effects. Geiparvarin has research significance for lung cancer, leukemia, and breast cancer[1][2][3][4][5].
