Afzelin

Afzelin (Synonyms: Kaempferol-3-O-rhamnoside) is a flavonoid isolated from Thesium chinense Turcz. and widely distributed in Korea and China. It has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative stress response, anti-apoptotic, and anti-cardiac cytotoxic effects. AfzelinIt can reduce mitochondrial damage, enhance mitochondrial biosynthesis, and reduce mitochondria-related proteins. Parkinand PTENinduced putative kinase 1 (putative kinase 1)s level. AfzelinCan be improved D-galactosamine(GalN)/LPSSurvival rate of mice treated with doxorubicin prophylaxis Induced cardiotoxicity and scopolamine -induced neurological injury. AfzelinAlso inhibits asthma and allergies caused by ovalbumin.

Kaempferol 3-O-α-L-Rhamnoside is found in Cornus macrophylla and has shown to have antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a leading cause of illness in immunocompromised individuals.

ChEBI: Afzelin is a glycosyloxyflavone that is kaempferol attached to an alpha-L-rhamnosyl residue at position 3 via a glycosidic linkage. It has a role as a plant metabolite, an antibacterial agent and an anti-inflammatory agent. It is a glycosyloxyflavone, a trihydroxyflavone and a monosaccharide derivative. It is functionally related to a kaempferol. It is a conjugate acid of an afzelin(1-).
