Chrysin is a promising phytochemical that is categorized under the class of flavonoids based on its chemical structure. Naturally, it is widely present in propolis, honey, passion fruit, and even in mushrooms and other plant sources, whereas its synthetic counterparts are also being employed for pharmacological purposes. It has widely been employed in treatment of various degenerative disorders and provides cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory functions. Its antioxidant and disease preventing abilities are attributed to its structural diversity arising in ring-A and absence of oxygenation in B and C ring. In this review, the scientific studies are being reported emphasizing benefits and its allied health claims on chrysin in numerous metabolic malfunctions.
白杨素是一种很有前途的植物化学物质,根据其化学结构可归类为类黄酮。它天然存在于蜂胶、蜂蜜、西番莲果,甚至在蘑菇和其他植物来源中,而其合成对应物也被用于药理学目的。它已广泛用于治疗各种退行性疾病,并具有细胞毒性和抗炎功能。其抗氧化和预防疾病的能力归因于其在 A 环中的结构多样性以及在 B 和 C 环中没有氧化。在这篇综述中,报告了科学研究,强调了白杨素在许多代谢功能障碍中的益处及其相关的健康益处。
