Abstract
Flavonoids represent a class of plant bioactive compounds renowned for their multifaceted health benefits. Among phytochemicals, polyphenols like Isosaponarin, a well-studied flavonoid, are widely distributed across various herbs and plant families, presenting notable antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. Numerous plant species harbour the Isosaponarin compound, each with distinct clinical and traditional applications. Isosaponarin-rich plants exhibit strong antimicrobial and antioxidant properties alongside noteworthy anti-hyaluronidase activity. This flavone glycoside also upregulates the mRNA gene level of type I collagen production, promoting skin health and wound healing. Studies highlight the significant effect of Isosaponarin on collagen synthesis, particularly notable in its derivation from wasabi rhizome extract and its application as a fragrance ingredient. Moreover, the research underscores its diverse biological activities, encompassing antiplatelet, anti-atopic dermatitis, and anti-tumor effects. This review aims to provide a comprehensive account of the botanical and dietary sources of Isosaponarin while delving into pivotal studies elucidating its antimicrobial and antioxidant prowess, role as an anti-hyaluronidase agent, mitigation of oxidative glutamate toxicity, and facilitation of type I collagen synthesis.
