Nobiletin is a flavonoid isolated from citrus peels. It is an O-methylated flavone that has the activity to rescue bulbectomy-induced memory impairment.[1]

Potential pharmacology

Nobiletin was found to have anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor invasion, proliferation, and metastasis in vitro and in animal studies. Nobiletin was also found to potentially inhibit cartilage degradation.[2]

Nobiletin was shown to augment AMPA receptor activity and long-term potentiation in cell culture.[3] Synergistic chemopreventive effects of nobiletin and atorvastatin on colon carcinogenesis have been described.[4]
