Syringetin

Syringetin is an O-methylated flavonol, a type of flavonoid. It is found in red grape (absent in white grape),[1] in Lysimachia congestiflora[2] and in Vaccinium uliginosum (bog billberries).[3] It is one of the phenolic compounds present in wine.[4]

It induces human osteoblast differentiation through bone morphogenetic protein-2/extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 pathway.[4]

Metabolism

Syringetin is formed from laricitrin by the action of the enzyme laricitrin 5′-O-methyltransferase[1][5] (myricetin O-methyltransferase).[6]
