Since the Ring B on the most active flavonesflavon3ols (e.g., luteolin, fisetin, the Ring B of your most active flavonesflavon3ols (e.g., luteolin, fisetin, inhibitory possible. apigenin, quercetin) was hydroxylated, OH groups (Ring B) definitely contributed towards the for the apigenin, quercetin) was hydroxylated, thethe OH groups (Ring B) clearly contributed inhibitory inhibitory presence of a meta and also a paraOH paraOH groups to be optimal for the for the effects.

As seen with urolithin A, two OHgroups at the C3 and C8 positions and lack of further substituents had been critical for the activity. As a result, only minor changes, like an addition or elimination of a hydroxyl group had been responsible for a exceptional change inside the inhibition. Related observation was valid for flavonols: Active quercetin and slightly active morin analogs, differing only by the position of 1 phenoli.
