Morin hydrate Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

yellow to brown powder

Uses

Morin hydrate has been used:

• to investigate its antitumor functionality using cell viability and apoptosis assay in human cancer cell lines.
• as a fluorescence stain to detect aluminum in motor neurons and lumbar cord.
• to study its protective effect on neuronal hearing loss and on neural stem cells (NSCs) proliferation and differentiation

General Description

Morin hydrate is a yellowish pigment and a fluorescent indicator. It is used for the fluorimetric determination of several metals, mostly aluminum.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Morin hydrate is a flavonoid with antioxidant properties. It has been shown to protect cells against oxygen radical damage. Morin not only scavenges oxyradicals, but also moderately inhibits xanthine oxidase, a free-radical generating enzyme. At concentrations of 75-100 micromolar, morin inhibits oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) by free radicals or Cu2+. Morin has been reported to inhibit rat brain phospha-tidyl-inositol-phos-phate kinase activity in vitro and in vivo.
