Interaction of 4'-methylflavonoids with biological membranes, liposomes, and human albumin.

The aim of the study was to compare the impact of three synthesized chemical compounds from a group of methylated flavonoids, i.e. 2'-hydroxy-4-methylchalcone (3), 4'-methylflavanone (4), and 4'-methylflavone (5), on a red blood cell membranes (RBCMs), phosphatidylcholine model membranes (PC), and human serum albumin (HSA) in order to investigate their structure-activity relationships.
