Structure-Guided Design of Planarized Catechin Derivatives: Enhancing Antioxidant and Multifaceted Biological Activities for Therapeutic Applications
2026-07-21
Abstract excerpt
Oxidative stress is a major driver of chronic disease, making natural polyphenols attractive scaffolds for modulating inflammation, proteostasis, and cell fate. However, green-tea catechins possess a twisted, conformationally flexible flavan-3-ol framework that limits π-conjugation, phenoxyl-radical stabilization, and productive interactions with biological targets. This review presents a structure-based framework...
