The effect of polyphenolic substances on vascular smooth muscle
Najmanová, Iveta ; Mladěnka, Přemysl (advisor) ; Tůmová, Lenka (referee) ; Klimas, Ján (referee)
[Sem zadejte text.] Abstract Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology Candidate: Iveta Najmanová, MCs First Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. Přemysl Mladěnka, Pharm.D., Ph.D. Second Supervisor: Marie Vopršalová, Pharm.D., Ph.D. Title of Doctoral Thesis: The effect of polyphenolic substances on vascular smooth muscle Polyphenolic substances are one of the most abundant secondary plant metabolites. Many substances from simple phenols with one benzene core to the polymeric compounds belong to these groups. Two groups, coumarins and flavonoids, were selected for this dissertation. The aim of this thesis was to analyse their effect on vascular smooth muscle in in vitro and in vivo conditions. In the case of coumarins, the aim was reached by writing of a review article. The effect of flavonoids, including their metabolites was experimentaly tested and some of the results have already been published. The first step in my research was to perform a screening of metabolites of quercetin, the most occuring flavonol in the human diet, and compare their vasorelaxant potential. Experiments were performed on isolated rat thoracic aorta. During the testing, the most effective metabolite was definitely 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid (3-HPPA), which was at least one order...
