The Evolution of Flavonoid Biosynthesis: A Bryophyte Perspective

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The flavonoid pathway is one of the best characterized specialized metabolite pathways of plants. In angiosperms, the flavonoids have varied roles in assisting with tolerance to abiotic stress and are also key for signaling to pollinators and seed ...

Deconjugation Kinetics of Glucuronidated Phase II Flavonoid Metabolites by B-glucuronidase from Neutrophils [PDF]

, 2010
Flavonoids are inactivated by phase II metabolism and occur in the body as glucuronides. Mammalian ß-glucuronidase released from neutrophils at inflammatory sites may be able to deconjugate and thus activate flavonoid glucuronides.

Effect of dry salting on flavonoid profile and antioxidant capacity of Algerian olive cultivars

Grasas y Aceites, 2016
This study investigated the changes in the flavonoid profile and antioxidant capacity of five olive cultivars after dry salting. The antioxidant activity was determined using ferric reducing ability power (FRAP), oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC),

Heterogeneous distribution of metabolites across plant species [PDF]

Physica A 388, 2771 (2009), 2009
We investigate the distribution of flavonoids, a major category of plant secondary metabolites, across species. Flavonoids are known to show high species specificity, and were once considered as chemical markers for understanding adaptive evolution and characterization of living organisms.

Identifying the transporters of different flavonoids in plants [PDF]

, 2010
We recently identified a new component of flavonoid transport pathways in Arabidopsis. The MATE protein FFT (Flower Flavonoid Transporter) is primarily found in guard cells and seedling roots, and mutation of the transporter results in floral and growth ...

Exogenous brassinolide improves the antioxidant capacity of Pinellia ternata by enhancing the enzymatic and nonenzymatic defense systems under non-stress conditions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Brassinolide (BR) improves the antioxidant capacity of plants under various abiotic stresses. However, it is not clear about the effect of BR on the antioxidant capacity in plants under non-stress conditions. In the present study, the antioxidant defense
