Abstract
In vitro studies showed that the flavonoid aglycones apigenin, luteolin and kaempferol inhibited the hyaluronidase activity of five different venoms dose-dependently. They were also able to delay the venom action when injected into mice. Naringenin, catechin and flavonoid glycosides had no effect. The flavonoids with unsubstituted hydroxyl groups at C-positions 5, 7 and 4', a double bond between carbons 2 and 3, as well as a ketone group at position 4, exhibited potent inhibitory actions on the venom hyaluronidases.
