Prenylflavonoids from Flourensia fiebrigii
Three compounds: (2S)-8-(3''-methylbut-2''-enyl)-7,3',4'-trihydroxyflavanone, (2S)-8-(3''-methyl-4''-hydroxy-but-2''-enyl)-7,3',4'-trihydroxyflavanone and (2S)-8-(3''-methyl-4''-hydroxy-but-2''-enyl)-5,3',4'-trihydroxy-7-methoxyflavanone, along with five previously known compounds, were isolated from the aerial parts of Flourensia fiebrigii.

Icaritin, an inhibitor of beta-site amyloid cleaving enzyme-1, inhibits secretion of amyloid precursor protein in APP-PS1-HEK293 cells by impeding the amyloidogenic pathway [PDF]
Background Icaritin (ICT) is a prenylflavonoid derivative from Epimedium brevicornum Maxim. ICT has been shown to have neuroprotective effects. We investigate how ICT affects secretion of amyloid precursor protein (APP). Methods We exposed APP-PS1-HEK293

Detecting beer intake by unique metabolite patterns [PDF]
Evaluation of the health related effects of beer intake is hampered by the lack of accurate tools for assessing intakes (biomarkers). Therefore, we identified plasma and urine metabolites associated with recent beer intake by untargeted metabolomics and ...

Prenylflavonoids counteract ovariectomy-induced disturbances in rats
The aim of the study was to investigate in animal model the influence of hops prenylflavonoids on hot flashes and bone loss. Xanthohumol (XN) and hop prenylflavonoids extract (HOP) restored twenty-four-hour variability of tail skin temperature in ovariectomized rats.

Arsenic thiolation and the role of sulfate-reducing bacteria from the human intestinal tract [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Arsenic (As) toxicity is primarily based on its chemical speciation. Although inorganic and methylated As species are well characterized in terms of metabolism and formation in the human body, the origin of thiolated methylarsenicals is still

Disposition of hop prenylflavonoids in human breast tissue [PDF]
AbstractHop‐derived products may contain xanthohumol (XN), isoxanthohumol (IX), and the potent phytoestrogen 8‐prenylnaringenin (8‐PN). To evaluate the potential health effects of these prenylflavonoids on breast tissue, their concentration, nature of metabolites, and biodistribution were assessed and compared with 17β‐estradiol (E2) exposure.
