    Product Description

    Rhamnetin is a flavonoid that has been found in O. falcate and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4 It reduces production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis induced by miconazole (Item No. 15420) in H9c2 cardiomyocytes.2 Rhamnetin inhibits LPS-induced TNF-α and nitric oxide (NO) production in rat neonatal organotypic hippocampal slice cultures (OHSCs) under control conditions and during ethanol withdrawal, as well as NMDA-induced neurotoxicity in OHSCs undergoing ethanol withdrawal.3 Dietary administration of rhamnetin (0.1 and 0.2% w/w) reduces serum levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and liver and erythrocyte levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in rats fed a cholesterol-free diet.4 Rhamnetin increases time spent in the target quadrant in the Morris water maze in a rat model of traumatic brain injury.5
