BACKGROUND To determine the effect of flavonoids in conjunction with antibiotics in methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) a study was designed. The flavonoids included Rutin, Morin, Qurecetin while antibiotics included ampicillin, amoxicillin, cefixime, ceftriaxone, vancomycin, methicillin, cephradine, erythromycin, imipenem, sulphamethoxazole/trimethoprim, ciprofloxacin and levolf...

Buckwheat rutin has been found to be able to inhibit angiotensin II (AngII) - induced hypertrophy in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, but the mechanism remains uncertain. In this study, myocardial hypertrophy model was made by adding AngII to the medium of cardiac myocytes of neonatal rats, meanwhile, different concentrations of buckwheat rutin were applied to observe their effects. Intrac...

O. fragrans has slightly less antioxidative activity than green tea. Five phenolic compounds, tyrosyl acetate (1), (+)-phillygenin (2), (8E)-ligustroside (3), rutin (4), and verbascoside (5), were isolated from the CHCl3 sub-extract of O. fragrans. The structures were elucidated by interpreting their spectral data. Evaluation of the antioxidative property of the isolated (+)-phillygenin (2), ru...

Protective effects of grape (Vitis vinifera) seed (GSE), Citrus spp. fruits (CE) and olive {Olea europaea L.) leaf (OL) extracts, the flavonoids diosmin and rutin, widely used as pharmaceuticals, and dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) against chromosomal damage induced by X-rays were determined by using the micronucleus test for anticlastogenic activity. The reduction of the frequency of micronucleated ...

background: testicular torsion and detorsion causes reperfusion injury which damages the testicular tissue and affects the quality of sperm. deterioration in the quality of sperm worldwide is the recent scenario and one of its reasons is testicular ischemic/ reperfusion (ir) injury. therefore the present study aims at producing new drugs for the treatment of testicular ir injury. methods: 42 an...

The investigation deals with the influence of permeation of rutin from carboxymethyl cellulose gel through full-thickness pig ear skin by (S)and (R)-alaptide as potential excipients. Alaptide, 8-methyl-6,9diazaspiro[4.5]decan-7,10-dione, is the original Czech compound. By means of this rapid screening it was found out that the permeation of rutin through the skin increased linearly with time an...

      Flavonoids could serve as potent inhibitors of xanthine oxidase (XO). In the present study, the effects of Ruta graveolens L. extract and its major isolated flavonoids, quercetin and rutin, on guinea pig liver XO have been investigated. The inhibitory effects of R. graveolens, quercetin and its glycoside form, rutin, were assayed spectrophotometrically. R. graveolens...
