Abstract
Complexation of chrysin, apigenin, and genistein to Cu(II) trebles their cytotoxicity against cancer cells. While the apigenin complex destabilizes their F-actin cytoskeleton and stimulates the expression of matrix metalloproteinases, the genistein complex supports cell-cell adhesion by actin remodeling, cadherin-catenin complex formation, and a reduced expression and secretion of MMPs.
