Kaempferitrin

Kaempferitrin is a flavonoid glycoside that has been found in B. pinnatum and has diverse biological activities.{21664,21659,21660} It scavenges DPPH radicals (IC50 = 8.73 µg/ml) and is active against the bacteria S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, and S. typhi, as well as the fungi C. albicans, C. parapsilosis, and C. neoformans (MICs = 16-32 µg/ml).{21664} Kaempferitrin inhibits LPS-and IFN-?-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in isolated mouse macrophages (IC50 = 40 ?M).{21659} It decreases blood glucose levels in a rat model of alloxan-induced diabetes when administered at a dose of 100 mg/kg.{21660}
