Abstract

Syzygium cumini (Myrtaceae) is a potential medicinal plant traditionally used in indigenous systems of medicines practiced in India and elsewhere due to its functional properties against metabolic inflammations viz., anti-hyperglycemic, anti-inflammatory, cardio-protective, and antioxidant activities. Targeting metabolic inflammation has emerged as a standalone strategy to attenuate metabolic disease. Myricetin (3,5,7,3′,4′,5′-hexahydroxyflavone) is one of the flavonoids from stem bark, leaf, flowers, fruits, pulp and seeds of S. cumini. Therefore, attention has been paid to explore bioactive potentials of this compound in S. cumini owing to its exemplary therapeutic prospective and health-promoting effects. Antioxidant effect of Myricetin from S. cumini has been though experimentally demonstrated, therapeutic potential of Myricetin has not been fully explored. In the present study, physicochemical, ADMET and druggability properties of Myricetin - a key flavonoid compound in S. cumini have been evaluated. Data implicates that this molecule of GRAS standard can be a novel jumble-sale lead in drug discovery.
