rutein

Recent research suggests that rutein, a flavonoid found in certain fruits and vegetables, may have potential in combating osteoarthritis and its symptoms.

The research focused on analyzing bioactive compounds from three sources: air-dried mulberry fruit (DMF), mulberry fruit juice (MFJ), and mulberry fruit pomace (MFP). This analysis included evaluating their impact on advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). The study revealed that extracts from DMF, MFJ, and MFP notably reduced AGEs in both fructose-BSA and MGO-BSA models. Compositional analysis indicated a positive correlation between phenolic content and antioxidant effectiveness. The study also explored how MFP extracts could counteract MGO-induced aging deficits in HaCaT cells.

The blog article examines the neuroprotective qualities of Ruta graveolens, a plant used in traditional medicine, highlighting its potential in treating neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Huntington's.

The present-day scientific community now acknowledges flavonoids as a distinct category of therapeutic molecules owing to their varied therapeutic properties. Among these, rutin, alternatively known as vitamin P or rutoside, has been investigated for numerous pharmacological effects.

New research at the University of Seoul has identified components in tomato seeds that may help combat varicose veins. The study found that tomato seeds contain high levels of flavonoids, vitamins C and K, and other compounds that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
