Teaghrelins are unique acylated flavonoid tetraglycosides originally identified in Chin-shin oolong tea, and proposed to be potential oral analogs of ghrelin. Two acylated flavonoid tetraglycosides were isolated from Shy-jih-chuen oolong tea, and their chemical structures were determined to be quercetin and kaempferol 3-O-[α-L-arabinopyranosyl(1 → 3)][2"-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl] [β-D-glucopyranosyl(1 → 3)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1 → 6)]-β-D-glucoside. These two compounds were extremely similar to the two…

Characterisation of teaghrelin-like principles from Assam tea cultivated in Thailand
TLDR
Two new teaghrelin-like compounds were purified and characterised from Assam tea varieties collected in Thailand, and did not display notable anti-inflammatory activity in human neutrophils assay.
Characterization of teaghrelin-like compounds from tea cultivars
TLDR
Two new teaghrelin-like compounds were characterized from tea cultivars, and their chemical structures were established by the spectroscopic and spectrometric analysis, but due to the different location of rhamnose, these two teagh Relins may not show significant ghrelin receptor affinity.
Quercetin 3-O-malonylglucoside in the leaves of mulberry (Morus alba) is a functional analog of ghrelin.
TLDR
The relatively abundant compound, quercetin 3-O-malonylglucoside was subjected to a bioactivity assay, and the result confirmed that it was able to increase the growth hormone secretion of rat anterior pituitary cells and presumably a key ingredient for the anti-aging activity of mulberry leaves.
Anti-Inflammatory Principles from the Needles of Pinus taiwanensis Hayata and In Silico Studies of Their Potential Anti-Aging Effects
TLDR
Results suggest the flavonoids are responsible for the potential anti-aging effects of pine needle tea.
Teaghrelin Protects SH-SY5Y Cells against MPP+-Induced Neurotoxicity through Activation of AMPK/SIRT1/PGC-1α and ERK1/2 Pathways
TLDR
The neuroprotective potential of teaghrelin against PD was explored in a cell model in which human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were treated with the mitochondrial toxin 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+).

Teaghrelins, unique acylated flavonoid tetraglycosides in Chin-shin oolong tea, are putative oral agonists of the ghrelin receptor.
TLDR
Two unique acylated flavonoid tetraglycosides previously identified in Chin-shin oolong tea were demonstrated to induce hunger of rats in a food intake assay and, thus, named teaghrelin-1 and teagh Relin-2, presumably, promising oral agonists of the ghrelin receptor.

TLDR
Nine acylated FGs were found to inhibit the proliferation and differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes at concentrations of 25, 50, and 100 μM (P < 0.05) and a rapid UPLC method was established to quantify nine FGs in six major processing types of tea.

Massive accumulation of gallic acid and unique occurrence of myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol in preparing old oolong tea.
TLDR
Analyzing infusions of three old and one newly prepared oolong teas showed that significant lower (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) but higher gallic acid contents were detected in the old teas compared to the new one, suggesting the possibility of releasinggallic acid from EGCG in old tea preparation.
