“…Some flavonoids compounds such as vitexin-2"-O-glucoside, vitexin-2"-O-rhamnoside, vitexin, rutin, hyperoside, isoquercitrin, quercetin and epicatechinin have been isolated from the leaves of Crataegus pinnatifida [8][9][10] as the main active compounds, which exhibited a wide range of pharmacological activities including cardiovascular diseases [11][12][13], antihypertensive [14] and anti-inflammatory [15], free radical scavenging [16], exercise tolerance and improved the symptoms of fatigue and breathing shortness [5,17]. In the recent study, these flavonoids compounds are analyzed by a high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) [9,18,19], capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method [20], high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) [21] and ultra-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometric (UPLC-ESI-MS) methods [22], which have been carried out the pharmacokinetics of vitexin-2"-O-rhamnoside and vitexin-4"-O-glucoside that expressed they were effective compounds. CS, CA and CK are primarily three hawthorn species in Xinjiang (China) [23], previous literature mostly focused on ornamental tree species and rootstocks and breeding materials for cultivated hawthorn.…”
