Application

  • Production of Polyphenolic Natural Products by Bract-Derived Tissue Cultures of Three Medicinal Tilia spp.: A Comparative Untargeted Metabolomics Study.: This study investigates the production of polyphenolic compounds, including scopoletin, in tissue cultures derived from the bracts of three medicinal Tilia species. The research highlights the potential of these cultures in producing valuable natural products (Szűcs et al., 2024).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Dye that can be used to detect the release of reactive oxygen species during the oxidative burst; peroxynitrite scavenger; acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.
Scopoletin significantly increases activity of lipoprotein lipase in adipocytes by promoting transcription of the LPL gene. It also partially reverses inhibition of LPL by TNF-α.
