Vicia faba L.

3′,4′,7-Trihydroxyflavone is an orally active inhibitor of OXA-48 (IC₅₀ = 1.89 μM) and COX-1 (IC₅₀ = 36.37 μM). 3′,4′,7-Trihydroxyflavone exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, inhibiting the release of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α. 3′,4′,7-Trihydroxyflavone inhibits H₂O₂-induced neuronal apoptosis and ROS accumulation, and exerts anti-neuroinflammatory effects by suppressing the JNK-STAT1 pathway. 3′,4′,7-Trihydroxyflavone exhibits antimicrobial and antibiotic-modifying activities against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative enteric bacteria. 3′,4′,7-Trihydroxyflavone inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclast formation via NFATc1. 3′,4′,7-Trihydroxyflavone activates the CREB-BDNF axis and restores scopolamine (HY-N0296)-induced memory deficits in mice.

Vicine, an alkaloid glycoside found mainly in fava beans, is toxic in individuals who have a hereditary loss of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and may cause haemolytic anaemia.Vicine is an inactive compound that is hydrolysed by the intestinal microflora to a highly reactive free radical generating compound, the aglycone divicine when Vicine enters the body through food.

Jasmonic acid ((-)-Jasmonic acid) is a plant growth regulator and a derivative of Linolenic acid (HY-N0728). Jasmonic acid enhances plant resistance and is widely used as a stress protectant. Jasmonic acid is an endogenous plant hormone and a plant growth inhibitor.

Convicine is a pyrimidine glycoside. Convicine, as well as Vicine, is the precursor of the aglycones Divicine and Isouramil. Convicine is the main factors of favism, which is a genetic condition leading to severe hemolysis after faba bean ingestion. Convicine can be isolated from the faba bean.

(-)-Dihydrojasmonic acid ((-)-9,10-Dihydrojasmonic acid) is a compound that can be isolated from the immature fruits of Vicia faba L. and belongs to plant endogenous cyclopentanoid metabolites.

(+)-Dihydrojasmonic acid is a fatty acid.

Vicine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Vicine. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Vicine, an alkaloid glycoside found mainly in fava beans, is toxic in individuals and may cause haemolytic anaemia.
