Glycosides glycyrrhizin

The simple chalcone 70 has distributed widely in Glycyrrhizin plants as a minor constituent, and its glycosides are main flavonoids of licorice as described in Chapter 1. Recently, Okuyama et al. reported inhibition effect of the chalcone (70) on azoxymethane-induced murine colon aberrant crypt foucus formation and carcinogenesis [116].

The root and rhizomes of the licorice plant contain approximately S to 9% of a steroidal glycoside called glyiyrrhizin. In the glycoside form, glycyrrhizin is ISO times sweeter than. sugar. Also present ate tritetpenoids. gluco.se. mannose, and...
