Abstract

Flavonoids are secondary metabolites abundantly present in plants and, in most cases, essential contributors to plants bioactivity. They have been studied so far for a range of possible health-beneficial effects, including antioxidant, cardioprotective, and cytotoxic. Therefore, there are data on the antimicrobial potential of a significant number of flavonoids. However, less is known regarding their antivirulence traits. Trending antimicrobial research worldwide has pointed out the promising effects of antimicrobial strategies based on the antivirulence principle, so this review aims to present the newest research regarding the antivirulence effects of flavonoids. Articles on antivirulence flavonoids published from 2015 until now were selected. A range of molecules from this class has been studied up to date, with the most abundant data for quercetin and myricetin, while the most studied organism is Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The antivirulence attributes studied included antibiofilm assessment, followed by data on the inhibition of virulence pigments (pyocyanin, violacein, and staphyloxanthin) and virulence enzyme production (such as sortase A and elastase). Less information is collected on the inhibition of morphological transition, motility, and molecular mechanisms underlying the antivirulence properties of flavonoids and in vivo research. Flavonoids are a group of compounds with a wide range of antivirulence traits and might be further developed into essential parts of novel antimicrobial strategies.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 18 April 2023.
All research outputs
#17,301,727
of 25,394,764 outputs
Outputs from Current Pharmaceutical Design
#2,503
of 3,703 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#270,826
of 475,273 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Pharmaceutical Design
#16
of 67 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,394,764 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,703 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.8. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 475,273 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 67 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its contemporaries.
