Synthesis and Bioevaluation of New Stable Derivatives of Chrysin-8-C-Glucoside That Modulate the Antioxidant Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway in Human Macrophages.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: The beneficial effects of the flavonoid chrysin can be reduced by its poor oral bioavailability. It has been shown that chrysin-8-C-glucoside (1) has a better absorption capability. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of this glucoside, as well as the respective hexa-acetate derivative 1a and the hexa-ethyl carbonate derivative 1b since the inclusion of moieties in bioactive molecules may increase or modify their biological effects. Methods: THP-1 macrophages were used to determine the viability in the presence of chrysin derivatives, and non-cytotoxic concentrations were selected. Subsequently, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and inflammatory
