Afzelechin
Afzelechin is a tetrahydroxyflavan that is (2S)-flavan substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 3, 5, 7 and 4 respectively. It has a role as a plant metabolite and an EC 3.2.1.20 (alpha-glucosidase) inhibitor. It is a tetrahydroxyflavan and a catechin. It derives from a hydride of a (2S)-flavan. Afzelechin is a natural product found in Cassipourea gummiflua, Bergenia ligulata, and other organisms with data available. A tetrahydroxyflavan that is (2S)-flavan substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 3, 5, 7 and 4 respectively.
Afzelechin
Afzelechin is a flavan-3-ol, a type of flavonoid. It exists as at least 2 major epimers (afzelechin and epi-afzelechin). It is produced through the transformation of cis-3,4lecuopelargonidin through the action of (2R,3S)-catechin:NADP+ 4-oxidoreductase. Afzelechin can be found in many plants native to Asia such as: Astilbe rivularis (also known as waterside astilbe), Bergenia ligulate (also known as Paashaanbhed in Ayurveda traditional Indian medicine), and Wisteria floribunda (Japanese wisteria). Afzelechin also occurs in barley and rye as a member of the proanthocyanidins found in these crop plants. Afzelechin exhibits moderate inhibitory effects on tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) induced nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-kB) activation in HepG2 cells (PMID: 21985227). Afzelechin is only found in individuals who have consumed barley/rye or taken certain herbal medicines containing this compound.
