Robinetin is a flavonol that has been found in R. pseudacacia and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4,5 It inhibits NADH oxidase with an IC50 value of 19 nmol/mg of protein in isolated beef heart mitochondria.2 Robinetin scavenges DPPH (Item No. 14805) radicals in a cell-free assay and inhibits glutathione S-transferase (GST; IC50 = 1.39 µM for the equine liver enzyme).3,4 It also inhibits multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1) and MRP2 in MDCK-II cells (IC50s = 13.6 and 15 µM, respectively, for the human proteins).5
