Eriocitrin is a flavanone glycoside, which exists in lemon or lime citrus fruits. It possesses antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-allergy activities. In order to investigate the pharmacokinetics and pharmacological mechanisms of eriocitrin in vivo, the interaction between eriocitrin and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was studied under the simulated physiological conditions by multispectroscopic and molecular docking methods. The results well indicated that eriocitrin and BSA formed a new eriocitrin-BSA complex because of intermolecular interactions, which was demonstrated by the results of ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra. The intrinsic fluorescence of BSA was quenched by eriocitrin, and static quenching was the quenching mechanism. The number of binding sites (n) and binding constant ( K b ) at 310 K were 1.22 and 2.84 × 10 6 L mol −1 , respectively. The values of thermodynamic parameters revealed that the binding process was spontaneous, and the main forces were the hydrophobic interaction. The binding distance between eriocitrin and BSA was 3.43 nm. In addition, eriocitrin changed the conformation of BSA, which was proved by synchronous fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectra. The results of site marker competitive experiments suggested that eriocitrin was more likely to be inserted into the subdomain IIA (site I), which was further certified by molecular docking studies.

A new graphene nanocomposite , CeO 2 -poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride)-graphene (CeO 2 -PDDA-GR), was prepared by an easy and low-cost hydrothermal method . The images of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that well-shaped CeO 2 nanoparticles distributed more uniformly on the GR sheets. Based on the CeO 2 -PDDA-GR composites modified glassy carbon electrode, the electrochemical properties of eriocitrin were investigated in detail and a sensitive determination method was established synchronously. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) measurement revealed that the oxidation peak current increased linearly with eriocitrin concentrations in range of 1.0 × 10 − 8 mol L − 1 –1.0 × 10 − 6 mol L − 1 with detection limit of 7.0 × 10 − 10 mol L − 1 (S/N = 3). Moreover, the proposed method was used in determination of eriocitrin in lemon sample with accurate results.
Eriocitrin is a flavonoid that is isolated from orange peel. Resveratrol is a polyphenol compound, which is present in various fruits, such as grapes. The aim of the present study was to investigate both in vitro and in vivo anti-inflammatory effects of eriocitrin combined with resveratrol using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW264.7 cells and a mouse model of ear edema. The results showed that eriocitrin combined with resveratrol strongly inhibited LPS-induced secretion of nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and Interleukin-1β (IL-1β). Moreover, Eriocitrin combined with resveratrol potently inhibited nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), phosphor-STAT3, and phosphor-AKT, which was accompanied by inhibition of phosphorylation in mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways . Treatment with eriocitrin combined with resveratrol alleviated edema and subcutaneous tissue inflammation caused by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in vivo . This study also demonstrated that treatment with eriocitrin and resveratrol decreased the levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β. The results of the present study indicate that eriocitrin combined with resveratrol effectively inhibits inflammatory responses both in vitro and in vivo .
