Eriodictyol inhibits glioblastoma migration and invasion by reversing EMT via downregulation of the P38 MAPK/GSK-3β/ZEB1 pathway.

Eriodictyol (ERD) is a natural flavonoid that exists in many vegetables and fruits, especially citrus fruits. It has been proven to have many pharmacological effects, such as antioxidative, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. Our previous study showed that eriodictyol could inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of glioblastoma cells by downregulating the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway and restraining its migration and invasion.
