Applications:

Hesperetin is a phytoestrogen and flavanone found in citrus plants thatnexhibits analgesic,antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory, antioxidative,cardioprotective, anti-fibrotic, anticancer, and anti-metastatic activities.

Hesperetin inhibits mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia and allodynia and decreases production of IL-6,IL-1β, and TNF-α in animal models. In vitro, hesperetin decreases Ca2+ influx by inhibiting L-type Ca2+channels, inducing vasorelaxation. Additionally, hesperetin increases expression of catalase, glutathione, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase and decreases expression of lipid peroxidase in vivo.The Symrise invention primarily relates to the use of hesperetin and/or thensalts thereof for enhancing the sweet taste of sweet-tasting substances or the sweet olfactory impression of flavourings which give a sweet olfactory impression. The invention thus primarily relates to the use of said substances as sweetness enhancers. The invention also relates to specific preparations which contain an effective content of hesperetin and/or the salts thereof and to processes for enhancing the sweet taste of the sweet-tasting substance or the sweet olfactory impression of a flavouring which gives a sweet olfactory impression.
