Prof. Jana Pourová, Pharm.D, Ph.D. Title of dissertation thesis: Effects of isoflavonoids and their metabolites on vascular smooth muscles in vitro and in vivo The dietary intake of flavonoids seems to be inversely related to cardiovascular mortality, in particular on coronary artery disease. The consumption of isoflavonoids, one class of flavonoids, has been increasing in the general population, especially due to the use of food supplements and a variety of isoflavonoid-rich foods. Although their bioavailability is low, they undergo extensive gastrointestinal metabolism by human bacteria, leading to smaller metabolites with a much higher degree of bioavailability. However, detailed studies on the impact of individual pure isoflavonoids on vascular system were mostly missing and much less was known for the effect of their colonic metabolites in this field. In the present study sixteen isoflavonoids, four metabolites and the racemic mixture of one of them were initially screened ex vivo for their vasorelaxant properties on rat aortas. The most potent of them, biochanin A, glycitein, O-desmethylangolensin...
