Increasing epidemiological evidence supports the view that dietary flavonoids have protective roles in oral diseases, including cancer. However, the dietary forms of flavonoids, the flavonoid glycosides, must first be hydrolyzed to the aglycones, which is thought to occur mainly in the intestine. In
Three flavonoids were isolated from dried flowers of Sophora japonica using repetitive column chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography. The flavonoids were identified as rutin (1), quercetin-3'-O-methyl-3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1 → 6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (2), and quercetin (3) on the
This study compared the effects of three flavonoids, including proanthocyanidin, naringin and quercetin on remineralization of artificial root caries.
Demineralized root fragments (n = 75) were randomly divided into five groups for treatment with the remineralizing agents for 10 minutes: (1) 6.5%
Objectives: To evaluate the effect of experimental dentin pre-treatment solutions formulated with different flavonoids on microtensile bond strength (μTBS), nanohardness (NH) and ultra-morphological characteristics of artificial
Pancreatic cancer studies have shown that inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) leads to decreased cancer cell proliferation and survival by abrogating nuclear factor κB (NFκB) activity. In this investigation, various citrus compounds, including flavonoids, phenolic acids, and
This study reports a novel class of inhibitors of uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP) galactopyranose mutase (UGM) derived from a screening of natural products. This enzyme is an essential biocatalyst involved in the cell wall biosynthesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Flavonoids are potent inhibitors of
We evaluated the antifilarial activity of 6 flavonoids against the human lymphatic filarial parasite Brugia malayi using an in vitro motility assay with adult worms and microfilariae, a biochemical test for viability (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5 diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT)-reduction
Flavonoids are compounds responsible for several organoleptic characteristics of plant-derived foods. They are also bioactive compounds with antiinflammatory role. Different mechanisms for this activity have been reported, but their effects on cell migration are not fully understood. In the present
A capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method modified by β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and acetonitrile (ACN) was developed for simultaneous determination of seven structurally similar flavonoids in Scutellariae Barbatae Herba (SBH) and its preparations. Molecular selectivity of the analytes by β-CD was in
A new three-dimensional graphene oxide-wrapped melamine foam was prepared and used as a solid-phase extraction substrate. β-Cyclodextrin was fabricated onto the surface of three-dimensional graphene oxide-wrapped melamine foam by a chemical covalent interaction. In view of a specific surface area
Six prenylated (iso)flavonoids were purified from a licorice root extract and subjected to competition experiments with six commercially available (iso)flavonoids. The agonistic and antagonistic activities of these compounds towards both hERα (human estrogen receptor alpha) and hERβ were determined.
Salivary microbiota alterations can correlate with dental caries development in children, and mechanisms mediating this association need to be studied in further detail. Our study explored salivary microbiota shifts in children and their association with the incidence of dental caries with dentine
OBJECTIVE
To study hypoglycemic effects of total flavonoid from Toona sinensis (TSTF) on diabetic mice model.
METHODS
To confect alloxan 0.02 g/ml with NS and injected alloxan into abdominal cavity to induce diabetic model, and all rats were fed bid with glucose for 2 consecutive days, then the
Flavonoids from Huangqin (dried roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi) have anti-inflammatory effects, and are considered useful for treatment of spinal cord injury. To verify this hypothesis, the T9-10 spinal cord segments of rats were damaged using Allen's method to establish a rat spinal cord
The aim of this work is to isolate antibacterial compounds from Sarang Semut (Myrmecodia pendans) and to evaluate their antibacterial activity against pathogenic oral bacteria of Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 and inhibitory activity against MurA enzyme. The antibacterial compounds from Sarang
