Luteolin 7-O-rutinoside is a polyketide-derived flavonoid glycoside that has been found in V. bugulifolium and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3 It scavenges DPPH radicals in a cell-free assay when used at concentrations ranging from 1 to 50 ?M.2 Luteolin 7-O-rutinoside is active against B. subtilis, S. aureus, A. tumefaciens, M. luteus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa (MICs = 100-200 ?g/ml).3 It is also active against C. albicans, S. cerevisiae, and C. lusitaniae (MICs = 100, 200, and 50 ?g/ml, respectively) and the plant pathogenic fungus A. niger (MIC = 100 ?g/ml). Luteolin 7-O-rutinoside (57.6 ?g/animal) decreases hepatic and renal injury and increases survival in a mouse model of polyphosphate-induced lethal endotoxemia.4
