QUICK LINKS

Chrysin, also referred to as 5,7-dihydroxyflavone, is a naturally occurring antioxidant flavonoi present in various plants such as honey, propolis, and the passionflower vine. In vitro research on chrysin has revealed its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and anti-diabetic properties, along with its ability to modulate the activity of specific enzymes, hormones, and neurotransmitters. For instance, it has shown the potential to influence the activity of aromatase, an enzyme involved in estrogen production. Moreover, chrysin has exhibited inhibitory effects on cancer cell growth and inflammation by influencing the activity of specific enzymes and hormones. It was discovered that Chrysin inhibits HIF-1α (hypoxia-inducible factor-1α) and induces apoptosis.

대부분의 chrysin의 용해도는 물에는 insoluble한데 sanracruz에서 만든 chrysin은 물에 용해가 된다고 표시되어 있네요 왜그런지 문의 드립니다. 뭔가 추출방법이 다르거나 하면 그 방법을 알려주셨으면 합니다. 그리고 물에 용해도가 높으면 동물실험이나 셀실험할때 물에 그냥 희석해서 실험을 진행해도 아무문제 없는지요?
