There is very limited information on cytochrome P450 (P450)-mediated oxidative metabolism of dietary flavonoids in humans. In this study, we used human liver microsomes and recombinant P450 isoforms to examine the metabolism of two flavonols, galangin and kaempferide, and one flavone, chrysin. Both galangin and kaempferide, but not chrysin, were oxidized by human liver microsomes to kaempferol,...

Pain is relieved by analgesics that acts via modulating the central and peripheral pain mediators. Some of analgesic has been reported to have a serious adverse effects when used in long-term treatments. Therefore, there need developing potent with minimal no effects. In current study, quercetin chrysin were evaluated for activity mice rat hyperalgesia (Eddy’s hot plate Tail flick analgesiomete...

Over more than five decades, cancer remains a national and international health problem regardless of the discovery of several dozens of novel anticancer drugs (natural and synthetic). Accordingly, screening of natural products for promising anti cancer activity is very initiative field of studies in several countries with diversity of gardenia. Breast and cervix cancers are of the most common ...

Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is a recently identified ATP-binding cassette transporter, important in drug disposition and in the development of multidrug resistance in cancer. Flavonoids, a major class of natural compounds widely present in foods and herbal products, have been shown to be human BCRP inhibitors. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the potential for in v...
