Vitexin

What is Vitexin?

Vitexin is a natural plant flavonoid glycoside compound extracted from the leaves of Vitex, a plant of the Verbenaceae family. It is widely distributed in the leaves and stems of dozens of plants in nature, such as Vitex, Vitex, Abacus, Hawthorn, etc. The main sources are the leaves, stems and hawthorn of Vitexin plants of the Verbenaceae family. This compound is widely distributed in nature and has a variety of physiological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-injury and neuroprotective effects. Because it is a multifunctional natural compound, it is widely used in medicine, health care and other fields. It is popular in the supplement industry because it is a compound with antioxidant activity. Vitexin and other flavonoids help eliminate free radicals, thereby supporting your overall health.

Functions

Antioxidant

It is a powerful antioxidant that can remove free radicals from the body and reduce oxidative stress, thereby protecting cells from damage.

Anti-inflammatory

It has significant anti-inflammatory effects and can help reduce inflammation, relieve pain and swelling.

Liver protection

Vitexin can protect the liver from damage by inhibiting the production of free radicals and reducing oxidative stress.

Blood sugar control

It helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels and reduces the breakdown and absorption of carbohydrates by inhibiting alpha-glucosidase.

Nervous system protection

It is beneficial for brain health and can support memory and cognitive function, especially showing positive effects on memory in studies of rats and mice.

Immune system support

It can support a healthy inflammatory response and enhance immunity by promoting the balance of cytokines.

Cardiovascular protection

It can improve heart function and reduce the risk of heart disease. It can help improve symptoms such as chest tightness and palpitations by promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and regulating qi and meridians.

Vitexin Antipruritic Mechanism

1. Inhibit acute pruritus

Intravenous injection of 7.5mg/kg of vitexin has an antipruritic effect on the above four acute itches.

2. Inhibit chronic itching in the xeroderma model

A xeroderma model was established using acetone ether. On the 7th day of model establishment, the number of itching times of xeroderma mice was close to 200 times per hour. The number of mice in the vitexin treatment group was reduced to less than 150 times.

3. Inhibit itching caused by TRPV4 agonist GSK101

Itching can be relieved by inhibiting TRPV4, reducing the expression of TRPV4 in dorsal root ganglion neurons, and reducing inflammatory cell infiltration.

Applications

Food

It has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and can be used as a natural food additive to extend the shelf life of food and improve the nutritional value of food.

Health food

Foods rich in Vitexin, such as mung beans and hawthorn, can be developed into health foods with health functions such as preventing cardiovascular diseases and anti-oxidation.

Extraction Method

(1) Ultrasonic and/or leaching sandalwood leaves with ethanol to obtain a crude ethanol extract of sandalwood leaves;

(2) Liquid-liquid extraction of the crude ethanol extract of sandalwood leaves with petroleum ether, chloroform and ethyl acetate in sequence; the ethyl acetate extract is collected, concentrated and dried to obtain an ethyl acetate extract;

(3) The ethyl acetate extract obtained in step (2) is separated in a chromatographic column; the separation uses an eluent composed of ethyl acetate and methanol for gradient elution, the eluate is collected and combined, and the eluate is recrystallized to obtain isovitexin;

(4) The residual liquid after recrystallization in step (3) is subjected to preparative liquid phase separation and purification to obtain isovitexin.
