Kaempferol glycosides can be hydrolyzed to their aglycone kaempferol during cooking under acidic conditions and in the oral cavity and the intestine by glycosidases. Kaempferol was oxidised by nitrite under acidic conditions (pH 2.0) to produce nitric oxide (NO), and the nitrite-induced oxidation of kaempferol was enhanced and inhibited by 10 and 100mg of starch ml(-1), respectively. The opposite effects of starch were discussed by considering the binding of kaempferol to starch and starch-dependent inhibition of the accessibility of nitrous acid to kaempferol. Kaempferol inhibited α-amylase-catalysed starch digestion by forming starch/kaempferol complexes, and the inhibitory effects increased in the order of amylopectin

This study attempted to explore the molecular mechanism of Epimedium herb (EH) on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treatment. We employed network pharmacology, molecular docking, and HPLC analysis to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the efficacy of EH in treating RA. To assess the efficacy of EH intervention, RA fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RA-FLS) and collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mouse models were utilized.

Background: Postmenopausal Osteoporosis (PMOP) is characterized by decreased bone mass and deterioration of bone microarchitecture, leading to increased fracture risk. Current treatments often have adverse effects, necessitating safer alternatives. Kaempferol, a flavonoid identified as a key active component of the traditional Chinese medicine Yishen Gushu formula, has shown promise in improving bone health, but its mechanisms in PMOP treatment remain unclear.

Understanding the change in plant-associated microbial diversity and secondary metabolite biosynthesis in medicinal plants due to their cultivation in non-natural habitat (NNH) is important to maintain their therapeutic importance. Here, the bacterial endomicrobiome of Podophyllum hexandrum plants of natural habitat (NH; Kardang and Triloknath locations) and NNH (Palampur location) was identified and its association with the biosynthesis of podophyllotoxin (PTOX) was revealed. Rhizomes (source of PTOX) of plants of NH had highest endophytic bacterial diversity compared to NNH-plants.

Materials And Methods: Using various databases and tools, we identified 155 active compounds within BSTSD's herbal components. Key compounds such as eriodictyol and β-sitosterol were noted for their significant anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory effects, which are crucial for promoting fracture healing.
