Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology Student: Lucie Ungerová Supervisor: PharmDr. Jana Pourová, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: The pharmakokinetics of isoflavonoids The aim of this diploma thesis is to summarize currently available informations about the pharmacokinetics of the polyfenolic compounds from a large group of flavonoids, isoflavonoids. Isoflavonoids are coumpounds found in many plant families, but especially in some members of Fabaceae family. One of the main well-known sources are soy beans containing the most famous isoflavones - genistein and daidzein, their pharmakokinetics is the main theme of this diploma thesis. Since isoflavonoids are mainly contained in the diet, their oral administration is very relevant. Isoflanonoids in the human diet occurs predominantly in the form of glykosides and therefore, after ingestion, they have to be deglycosylated by β- glucosidase enzyme family to aglycones. After that they are able to pass through the intestine into the systemic circulation and they are available for action. This is already happening in the oral cavity and the absorption occurs in the small intestine. The intestinal bacterial microflora composition is also very important for pharmacokinetics, for example I can mention...
