Description (English)

Research Area: Cardiovascular Disease , Inflammation
Biological Activity:
Methyl-Hesperidin is a flavanone glycoside (flavonoid) (C28H34O15) found abundantly in citrus fruits. Its aglycone form is called hesperetin. Its name is derived from the Hesperides nymphs of Greek mythology. Hesperidin is believed to play a role in plant defense. Hesperidin reduced cholesterol and blood pressure in rats. Hesperidin has anti-inflammatory effects. Hesperidin is also a potential sedative, possibly acting through opioid or adenosine receptors.Some in vitro results applied only to the aglycone form. Hesperidin also showed the ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier in an in vitro model. [1]
