Abstract:
AbstractFlavonoids are a group of phenolic secondary metabolites in plants that have important physiological, ecological and economic value. In this study, using the desert plant Artemisia sphaerocephala Krasch. as the sample material, the content and components of the total flavonoids in its seeds at seven different developmental stages were determined. In addition, the genes involved in flavonoid metabolism were identified by full-length transcriptome sequencing (third-generation sequencing technology based on PacBio RS II). Their expression levels were analysed by RNA-seq short reading sequencing, to reveal the patterns and regulation mechanisms of flavonoid accumulation during seed development. The key results were as follows: the content of total flavonoids in mature seeds was 15.05 mg g−1, including five subclasses: flavonols, chalcones, flavones, flavanones and proanthocyanidins, among which flavonols accounted for 45.78%. The period of rapid accumulation of flavonoids was 40–70 d following anthesis. The high expression of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), 4-coumarate-CoA ligase (4CL) and UDP-glucose:flavonoids 3-o-glucosyltransferase (UF3GT) promoted the accumulation of total flavonoids, while the high expression of flavonoids 3′-hydroxylase (F3′H) and flavonols synthase (FLS) made flavanols the main component. Transcription factors such as the MYB-bHLH-WDR (MBW) complex and Selenium-binding protein (SBP) directly regulated the structural genes of flavonoid metabolism, while C2H2-type zinc finger (C2H2), Zinc-finger transcription factor (GATA), Dehydration-responsive element binding (DREB), Global Transcription factor Group E protein (GTE), Trihelix DNA-binding factors (Trihelix) and Phytochrome-interacting factor (PIF) indirectly promoted the synthesis of flavonoids through hormones such as brassinoidsteroids (BRs) and abscisic acid (ABA). These results provided valuable resources for the application of related genes in genetics and breeding.

Abstract:
Abstract Flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds naturally occurring in fruits and vegetables, in addition to beverages such as tea and coffee. Flavonoids are emerging as potent therapeutic agents for cardiovascular as well as metabolic diseases. Several studies corroborated an inverse relationship between flavonoid consumption and cardiovascular disease (CVD) or adipose tissue inflammation (ATI). Flavonoids exert their anti-atherogenic effects by increasing nitric oxide (NO), reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS), and decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokines. In addition, flavonoids alleviate ATI by decreasing triglyceride and cholesterol levels, as well as by attenuating inflammatory mediators. Furthermore, flavonoids inhibit synthesis of fatty acids and promote their oxidation. In this review, we discuss the effect of the main classes of flavonoids, namely flavones, flavonols, flavanols, flavanones, anthocyanins, and isoflavones, on atherosclerosis and ATI. In addition, we dissect the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms of action for these flavonoids. We conclude by supporting the potential benefit for flavonoids in the management or treatment of CVD; yet, we call for more robust clinical studies for safety and pharmacokinetic values.

Abstract:
Flavonoids are natural antioxidants in plants that affect the color of plant tissues. Flavonoids can be divided into eight subgroups, including flavonols, anthocyanins, and proanthocyanidins. The mechanisms of flavonoid synthesis in model plants have been widely studied. However, there are a limited number of reports on the synthesis of flavonoids in the red leaf varieties of woody plants. In this study, we combined morphological observation, pigment content determination, metabolomics, and transcriptomics to investigate the metabolites and gene regulation present in the red and green leaves of Eucommia ulmoides Oliv. The results showed that the red leaves have a lower chlorophyll content and a higher anthocyanin content. Metabonomic analysis identified that the relative content of most flavonoids is up-regulated in red leaves based on UPLC-ESI-MS/MS, which included the apigenin class, quercetin class, kaempferol class, and procyanidins. Transcriptome data suggested that the differentially up-regulated genes are enriched in flavonoid and anthocyanin synthesis pathways, ABC transport, and GST pathways. The integrative analysis of the transcriptome and metabolome showed that the up-regulation of flavonoid metabolism and a high expression of chlorophyll degradation with the down-regulation of chlorophyll biosynthesis genes are detected in E. ulmoides red leaves compared with green leaves. In addition, the co-expression networks implied that cyanidin 3-5-O-diglucoside, EuDR5, EuPAL2, EuDFR11, Eu3MaT1, and EuF3′H are likely associated with the red leaf coloration of E. ulmoides. In summary, this research provided a reference for studying the mechanism of red leaf coloration in woody plants and the use of E. ulmoides red leaves as feedstock for bioactive products.

Abstract:
Abstract Flavonoids, such as anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, and flavonols, are widespread plant secondary metabolites and important for plant adaptation to diverse abiotic and biotic stresses. Flavonoids can be variously hydroxylated and decorated; their biological activity is partly dependent on the degree of hydroxylation of the B-ring. Flavonoid biosynthesis is regulated by MYB transcription factors, which have been identified and characterized in a diversity of plants. Here we characterize a new MYB activator, MYB117, in hybrid poplar (Populus tremula×tremuloides). When overexpressed in transgenic poplar plants, MYB117 enhanced anthocyanin accumulation in all tissues. Transcriptome analysis of MYB117-overexpressing poplars confirmed the up-regulation of flavonoid and anthocyanin biosynthesis genes, as well as two flavonoid 3′,5′-hydroxylase (F3′5′H) genes. We also identified up-regulated cytochrome b5 genes, required for full activity of F3′5′H . Phytochemical analysis demonstrated a corresponding increase in B-ring hydroxylation of anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, and flavonols in these transgenics. Similarly, overexpression of F3′5′H1 directly in hybrid poplar also resulted in increased B-ring hydroxylation, but without affecting overall flavonoid content. However, the overexpression of the cytochrome b5 gene in F3′5′H1-overexpressing plants did not further increase B-ring hydroxylation. Our data indicate that MYB117 regulates the biosynthesis of anthocyanins in poplar, but also enhances B-ring hydroxylation by up-regulating F3′5′H1.

Complexes of cooper (II) and iron (II) with flavonoid quercetin have been synthesized. The structure of compounds has been confirmed by means of UV-Vis and FTIR spectroscopic techniques. The antioxidant activity of the flavonoid complexes has been evaluated by using the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging method. These complexes of flavonoids are much more effective free radical scavengers than the free flavonoids, an aspect which recommends them for further studies on possible therapeutic applications.

Abstract:
Chrysanthemum morifolium. cv “Hangju” is an important medicinal material with many functions in China. Flavonoids as the main secondary metabolites are a major class of medicinal components in “Hangju” and its composition and content can change significantly after flooding. This study mimicked the flooding stress of “Hangju” during flower bud differentiation and detected its metabolites in different growth stages. From widely targeted metabolomics data, 661 metabolites were detected, of which 46 differential metabolites exist simultaneously in the different growth stages of “Hangju”. The top three types of the 46 differential metabolites were flavone C-glycosides, flavonol and flavone. Our results demonstrated that the accumulation of flavonoids in different growth stages of “Hangju” was different; however, quercetin, eriodictyol and most of the flavone C-glycosides were significantly enhanced in the two stages after flooding stress. The expression of key enzyme genes in the flavonoid synthesis pathway were determined using RT-qPCR, which verified the consistency of the expression levels of CHI, F3H, DFR and ANS with the content of the corresponding flavonoids. A regulatory network of flavonoid biosynthesis was established to illustrate that flooding stress can change the accumulation of flavonoids by affecting the expression of the corresponding key enzymes in the flavonoid synthesis pathway.

Flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds of natural origin. They are extensively studied within drug discovery programs due to their wide ranging biological activities such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, antitumor, neuroprotective and cardioprotective properties. The ability of flavonoids to coordinate with metal atoms has provided new leads for drug discovery programs, with better pharmacological activities and clinical profiles than the parent flavonoids. In this review, the enhanced antioxidant and anticancer activities of flavonoid metal complexes versus the parent flavonoids are discussed. Possible mechanisms of action for the metal complexes, such as DNA binding and apoptosis induction, are also presented alongside an overview of the synthesis of the metal complexes, and the different techniques used for their characterization.

Abstract:
Hypertension is an independent risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease. Therapy requires modifying the diet and lifestyle in order to reduce body weight. The role of flavonoids in reducing blood pressure also seems interesting. Flavonoids are plant compounds. The main classes of flavonoids are flavons, isoflavons, flavonols, flavanols, flavanones, and anthocyanins. Numerous epidemiological studies have reported that a higher intake of flavonoids in a diet is associated with a decreased risk of hypertension. One of the mechanisms by which flavonoids can help to reduce blood pressure is their activity as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. Various flavonoids have a different ability to inhibit ACE, which is dependent on their chemical structure. The ACE inhibitor activity is associated with three structural elements of flavonoids: the catechol group on the B-ring, C2-C3 double bond and the cetone group in C4 at the C-ring. Flavonoids may exhibit ACE inhibitor activity because of compete with the substrate (competitive inhibition). One of the studies showed that flavonoid activity, as an ACE inhibitor, may be dependent on the ACE genotype (I/I, I/D, D/D). The vasodilatory properties of flavonoids can help lower blood pressure. Authors of numerous studies have shown that these properties are associated with different mechanisms, e.g. activation of potassium channels, regulation of extracellular and intracellular Ca2+ level, stimulation of nitric oxide synthase and increased synthesis of nitric oxide. Based on the studies presented in this paper, it can be concluded that flavonoids may play an important role both in preventing hypertension and in supporting its treatment.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe health benefits of flavonoids for humans are increasingly attracting attention. Because the extraction of high-purity flavonoids from plants presents a major obstacle, interest has emerged in biosynthesizing them using microbial hosts. Eriodictyol is a flavonoid with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. Its efficient synthesis has been hampered by two factors: the poor expression of cytochrome P450 and the low intracellular malonyl coenzyme A (malonyl-CoA) concentration inEscherichia coli. To address these issues, a truncated plant P450 flavonoid, flavonoid 3′-hydroxylase (tF3′H), was functionally expressed as a fusion protein with a truncated P450 reductase (tCPR) inE. coli. This allowed the engineeredE. colito produce eriodictyol froml-tyrosine by simultaneously coexpressing the fusion protein with tyrosine ammonia lyase (TAL), 4-coumarate-CoA ligase (4CL), chalcone synthase (CHS), and chalcone isomerase (CHI). In addition, metabolic engineering was employed to enhance the availability of malonyl-CoA so as to achieve a new metabolic balance and rebalance the relative expression of genes to enhance eriodictyol accumulation. This approach made the production of eriodictyol 203% higher than that in the control strain. By using these strategies, the production of eriodictyol froml-tyrosine reached 107 mg/liter. The present work offers an approach to the efficient synthesis of other hydroxylated flavonoids froml-tyrosine or even glucose inE. coli.

Abstract A number of flavonoid 3′,4′-disulfates were synthesized from the corresponding 4′-sulfate esters, using sulfur trioxide-trimethylamine complex. Desulfation of the sulfate esters using aryl sulfatase demonstrated that the rate of hydrolysis of the 3′-sulfate group was slower than either the 7- or 4′ groups, thus allowing the specific synthesis of flavonol 3,3′-disulfates. The effects of ortho-disulfation on the 13C NMR spectra of flavonoids, and the regative FAB-MS spectra of diand trisulfated flavonoids are discussed.

Flavonoids, one of the biggest classes of secondary metabolites, are found abundantly in nature in a broad range of fruits, vegetables and beverages such as tea, coffee, beer, wine and fruit drinks. Flavonoids have been reported to exert multiple biological functions as well as tremendous pharmacological activity, including anticancer activity, protection, antioxidant activity, cardiovascular protection, antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral activity. The antioxidant activity of flavones is reported to be associated with those bearing hydroxyl functions. In the present study, several reaction steps have been carried out to synthesize three sub classes of flavonoids namely; chalcones, dihydrochalcones and flavanones with various substituents attached. The first step involved protection of hydroxyl groups of acetophenone and benaldehyde as starting materials. Thereafter the Clasien Schmidt condensation reaction, under basic conditions, was performed to afford chalcone intermediates. Treatment of these chalcones with sodium acetate, under reflux, afforded flavanones as a single product in high yields. Thereafter all protecting groups where removed to yield the final products. All products and intermediates where purified by column chromatography and were characterized by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) (1H NMR and 13C NMR). An electrochemical analysis on all flavonoid compounds was performed by Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Square Wave Voltammetry (SWV) to give information on the accessible redox couples identified by their oxidation potentials. Oxidation potentials, which gave valuable information about reducing ability and hence the antioxidant activity, where used to compare all compounds. The antioxidant activity was observed to increase with the addition of hydroxyl groups on the B-ring. Compounds with a combination of hydroxyl groups on the A-ring and methoxy groups on the B-ring showed increased antioxidant activity when compared to those with only hydroxyl groups on the base structure. 2, 5, 4’-trihydroxy dihydrochalcone showed moderate antioxidant ability. However the 2, 5, 4’-trihydroxychalcone, containing the α, β unsaturated double bond, proved to have the greatest antioxidant ability.

Remarkable progress toward the complete elucidation of the biosynthesis of flavonoids has been accomplished during the last decade, but the final step leading to proanthocyanidins still remain to be elucidated, in particular, the exact nature of starter and extension units as well as the enzymatic or non enzymatic condensation process. In order to answer whether some specific enzymes are involved in the biosynthesis of grapevine proanthocyanidins, we have developped a chemical proteomics approach, with an affinity chromatography-based tool in which a flavanol type substrate is loaded on an appropriate solid support. The validation of these tools with the LDOX enzyme from Vitis vinifera was developped and performed in this Ph.D work

En situaciones no patológicas, las procianidinas afectan la insulinemia modificando la síntesis, secreción y/o degradación de la insulina. En situaciones de resistencia a la insulina, el tratamiento crónico con procianidinas disminuye la síntesis y secreción de insulina gracias a su acción limitando el acúmulo de lípidos. En cambio, en un modelo más dañado (obesidad genética), las procianidinas ejercen efectos similares pero no son capaces de mejorar la hipersinulinemia.

Procyanidins are bioactive compounds found in fruits and vegetables widely consumed. It has been reported that procyanidins show some beneficial effects on glucose homeostasis, although their effects on β-cell functionality remain unresolved. This doctoral thesis is focus on describing the effects of procyanidins on insulin synthesis and secretion. Our results showed that procyanidins modify β-cell functionality through increasing the plasma insulin/mRNA ratio, although the effectiveness of the treatment depends on the physiological situation. Under non-pathological situation, procyanidins affected insulinaemia by modifying insulin synthesis, secretion and/or degradation activity. Under insulin-resistance situation, chronic procyanidins administration decreased insulin synthesis and secretion, thanks to its lipid-lowering effect. Otherwise in a more damaged model, Zucker fatty rat, procyanidins treatment is not able to reduce insulin plasma levels although they repress insulin expression. In conclusion, procyanidins could be used as bioactive compound to limit β-cell dysfunctions under high-palatable diets, but at the assayed doses, it is not enough to counteract a strong metabolic disruption.
