Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Diosmin and Hesperidin in Rat Colitis Induced by TNBS

Abstract: The intestinal anti-inflammatory activity of two flavonoids, hesperidin and diosmin, was evaluated in the acute stage of the trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) model of rat colitis. The results obtained showed that pretreatment with diosmin (10 mg/kg) or hesperidin (10 and 25 mg/kg) reduced colonic damage compared to TNBS control rats. This effect was confirmed biochemically by a reduction in colonic myeloperoxidase activity compared to non-treated colitic animals. Colonic glutathione levels in colitic animal… Show more

“…Several poliphenolic compounds, particularly flavonoids, also shown non dose-dependent response in TNBS model of rat colitis, probably due to produce in lower doses antioxidant effects and higher doses pro-oxidant effects. 13,37,[40][41][42] In addition, several phenols have a dual effect on prostaglandin H synthase, with low concentrations stimulating and high concentrations inhibiting this enzyme. 43) Phenols stimulate prostaglandin H synthase by acting as reducing substrates for the oxidized intermediates of prostaglandin biosynthesis, thereby accelerating the peroxidase cycle and by functioning as electron-donating cosubstrates for the peroxidase component of prostaglandin synthase.…”

“…Hesperidin and naringin are the main flavanone glycosides naturally occurring in citrus fruits (Rouseff et al, 1987;Kanaze et al, 2003). They exert antioxidant (RiceEvans et al, 1996;Miyake et al, 1998;Franke et al, 2005), anti-inflammatory (Crespo et al, 1999), blood lipid and cholesterol-lowering (Montforte et al, 1995;Bok et al, 1999;Lee et al, 1999;Santos et al, 1999) and anticarcinogenic activities Yang et al, 1997;Berkarda et al, 1998). Epidemiological studies indicate an association between the intake of citrus fruits and juices and the risk of ischemic stroke (Joshipura et al, 1999).…”

“…it is a flavonoid glycoside which is isolated from citrus plant [1]. Hesperidin has been proven to have anti-inflammation, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-hemorrhoid, and anticancer activity so it could be used in therapy of some colon related diseases such as hemorrhoid, chronic vein insufficiency, colon cancer, and ulcerative colitis [1][2][3][4][5][6], however, hesperidin has low solubility on digestive tract (<100 mg/l) as well as low bioavailability (<25%) [1,7]. Therefore, the correct delivery system is required to increase the bioavailability and therapy effectiveness from hesperidin, one of them is by formulating it into a hydrogel.…”
