Interaction of 4′-methylflavonoids with biological membranes, liposomes, and human albumin
Abstract The aim of the study was to compare the impact of three synthesized chemical compounds from a group of methylated flavonoids, i.e. 2′-hydroxy-4-methylchalcone (3), 4′-methylflavanone (4), and 4′-methylflavone (5), on a red blood cell membranes (RBCMs), phosphatidylcholine model membranes (P...
