Nine glycosides of patuletin, 6-methoxykaempferol and spinacetin from Good King Henry (Chenopodium bonus-henricus L.) were investigated for neuroprotective, anti-α-glucosidase and lipase activities. All tested flavonoids (100 µM) showed statistically significant neuroprotective activities on isolated rat brain synaptosomes using 6-hydroxydopamine in vitro model. They preserved synaptosome viability as well as the reduced glutathione level. 6-Methoxykaempferol glycoside 9 possessed the most prominent neuroprotective and antioxidant effects, within the same range as silibinin (100 µM). Anti-α-glucosidase and lipase activities of the tested compounds were established by measuring the levels of the released 4-nitrophenol using LC-MS here for the first time. Patuletin glycosides 2 and 7 possessed similar activity to acarbose with IC₅₀ 210, 249 and 206 µM, respectively. All flavonoids exhibited prolipase activity and could be used in the treatment of cachexia. The most active were flavonoids, which contain esterified ferulic acid.
