Apiin is one of the major flavonoids found in the aromatic herb parsley. It is a bi-glycosylated form of apigenin.

Apiin is well-known for its antioxidant properties. It can enhance the production of β-apiosidase, an extracellular glycosidase in Aspergillus niger. Apiin also exerts antiplatelet activity.
Apiin, a major flavonoid component of celery, shows antiinflammatory activity mediated through inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis and inhibition of iNOS expression.
Drying process of parsley leaves from Petroselinum crispum L. can influence the sensory qualities and aromatic taste of this herbal product. Beside oven-dried material, freeze-dried parsley is getting increasingly into the market. In the course of a search for analytical

To investigate the protective effects of Ampelopsis grossedentata (AMP) on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice based on systems pharmacology approach. Systems pharmacology approach was used to predict the active ingredients, candidate targets and the efficacy of AMP on

Flavonoids, natural compounds widely distributed in the plant kingdom, are reported to affect the inflammatory process and to possess anti-inflammatory as well as immunomodulatory activity in-vitro and in-vivo. Since nitric oxide (NO) produced by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is
UDP-apiose, a donor substrate of apiosyltransferases, is labile because of its intramolecular self-cyclization ability, resulting in the formation of apiofuranosyl-1,2-cyclic phosphate. Therefore, stabilization of UDP-apiose is indispensable for its availability and identifying and characterizing the apiosyltransferases involved in the biosynthesis

We report a novel strategy for the biological synthesis of anisotropic gold and quasi-spherical silver nanoparticles by using apiin as the reducing and stabilizing agent. The size and shape of the nanoparticles can be controlled by varying the ratio of
