BACKGROUND Potentilla fruticosa, also called "Jinlaomei" and "Gesanghua", is widely used as folk herbs in traditional Tibetan medicine in China to treat inflammations, wounds, certain forms of cancer, diarrhoea, diabetes and other ailments. Previous research found P. fruticosa leaf extract (C-3) combined with Ginkgo biloba extracts (EGb) showed obvious synergistic effects in a variety of oxidat...

From methanolic extract of aerial parts of Peucedanum ruthenicum M. Bieb (Apiaceae) collected from Mazandaran province of Iran, four flavonoids namely Isorhamnetin 3-0-rutinoside 1, rutin 2, quercetin 3, morin 4 and two phenolic acids namely caffeic acid 5 and p-coumaric acid 6 have been isolated by Paper Chromatography (PC) and crystallization. Their structures were elucidated by MS, 1H, 13C N...

Larix gmelinii, Pinaceae, Flavonoids, High-Performance Liquid Chromatography From needles of Larix gmelinii sixteen flavonoids were isolated and identified. The main flavonoids had been analyzed before, eight minor ones were identified as quercetin-3-glucoside, isorhamnetin-3-glucoside and -3-arabinoside, a somewhat lipophilic kaempferol-3-glucoside derivative, apigenin-7-glucoside, laricitrin-...

Epidemiological studies suggest that a diet high in flavonoids protects against chronic diseases such as CVD and cancer. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between the intake of quercetin, kaempferol, isorhamnetin, apigenin and luteolin and their corresponding plasma concentrations, and further to explore whether these flavonoids can serve as biomarkers of their...

Bee bread (BB) is a fermented mixture of plant pollen, honey, and bee saliva that worker bees use as food for larvae, and for young bees to produce royal jelly. In the present study, five BB samples, collected from Apis mellifera iberiensis hives located in different apiaries near Bragança, in the northeast region of Portugal, and one BB commercial sample were characterized by high-performance ...

Salsola is one of the largest and most important genera in the family Chenopodiaceae. Salsola species are used for their anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive, anthelmintic and antipruritic effects and also as diuretic in traditional medicines worldwide. The aim of the present study is to assess the activity potential of the extracts, subextracts and isolated compounds from the aerial parts of and...

An amino acid derivative, L-(-)-(N-trans-cinnamoyl)-arginine, was isolated from the whole plant of Glinus oppositifolius (L.) Aug. DC. along with kaempferol 3-O-galactopyranoside, isorhamnetin 3-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-galactopyranoside, vitexin, vicenin-2, adenosine and L-phenylalanine. The structure determinations were based on analyses of chemical and spectroscopic methods.
