Description
Curator's Comment: The description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19592245 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28640852 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21805085 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26238175

Flavonol (3-Hydroxyflavone) is a practically insole synthetic compound, which is not found naturally in plants. 3-hydroxyflavone can be found in a number of food items such as brassicas, pomegranate, red raspberry, and fenugreek, which makes 3-hydroxyflavone a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Flavonol serves as a model molecule as it possesses an excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) effect to serve as a fluorescent probe to study membranes for example or intermembrane proteins.

Sample Use Guides

Rats were treated with as dose 50 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Oral
The rat renal proximal tubule cell line (NRK52E) was used for activity evaluation. Microplate assay using oxidant-sensitive 20,70-dichlorofluorescein-diacetate (DCFDA; Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY) measured the intracellular generation of ROS. Cells grown in T25 flasks were pretreated with either 20 μM3HF (Flavonol) or 20 μM7HF for overnight as required and isolated with trypsinization. After washing and counting, cells were loaded with 100 μM DCFDA in HBSS for 30 min at 37ÊC. After incubation, the excess dye was removed by washing with fresh HBSS and placed in wells of a 96-well plate (0.5 x 10^6 cells/well). 200 μMNIC was added to the appropriate wells and the increase in fluorescence was monitored in a fluorescence plate reader (Fluorocount, Packard) at 485 nmexc/530 nmem. ROS production was calculated as changes in fluorescence/30 min/0.5 x 10^6 cells and expressed as the percentage of untreated values
