Astragalin (kaempferol-3-O-glucoside), a newly found flavonoid from leaves of persimmon or Rosa agrestis, is known to have antiatopic dermatitis and antioxidant activity. However, the effect of astragalin on the inflammatory response is not well defined. Nitric oxide (NO) produced from
Six phenolics were obtained from the leaves of Prunus padus by activity-guided isolation: isorhamnetin 3-O-β-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-galactopyranoside (1), astragalin (2), hyperoside (3), quercetin 3-O-β-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-galactopyranoside (4), quercetin 3-O-β-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-β-glucopyranoside (5) and chlorogenic acid (6). The antioxidant potential of 70% methanolic extracts from the flowers

We report the production of astragalin (AST) from regiospecific modifications of naringenin (NRN) in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). The exogenously supplied NRN was converted into dihydrokaempferol (DHK) and then kaempferol (KMF) in the presence of flavanone-3-hydroxylase (f3h) and flavonone synthase (fls1)

Astragalin (AG), a flavonoid from many traditional herbs and medicinal plants, has been described to exhibit in vitro anti-inflammatory activity. The present study aimed to determine the protective effects and the underlying mechanisms of astragalin on lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxemia and lung
α-Glucosidase plays important roles in the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in the small intestine. The inhibition of α-glucosidase is regarded as a potential way to treat diabetes. We established an approach to screening α-glucosidase inhibitors from medicinal plants using
