It is known that common buckwheat sprouts contain several flavonoids, including orientin, isoorientin, vitexin, isovitexin, rutin, and quercetrin, whereas tartary buckwheat sprouts contain only rutin. In this study, we evaluated flavonoids present in buckwheat sprouts and identified a previously unreported
High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) protein acts as a late mediator of severe vascular inflammatory conditions. Orientin has been known to have anxiolytic and antioxidative activities. However, the effect of orientin on HMGB1-induced inflammatory response has not been studied. We

Aldehyde oxidase (AO), an important enzyme in the biotransformation of drugs and xenobiotics, is inhibited by flavonoids. This enzyme can metabolize both aldehydes and N-heterocycles. In this work, a set of 15 flavonoids was assessed for inhibitory activity on the

In traditional therapy with Chinese medicine, vitexin has several pharmacological properties, including antinociceptive, antispasmodic, antioxidant, antimyeloperoxidase, and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities. Recently, vitexin was shown to protect the heart against ischemia/reperfusion injury in an in vitro model by inhibiting apoptosis. The
With this study, we investigated why some small molecules demonstrate narrow dynamic ranges in electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and sought to establish conditions under which the dynamic range could be extended. Working curves were compared for eight flavonoids and two
